Abstract
We propose a mechanism of supercurrent-induced phonon angular momentum in mixed parity superconductors and -wave superconductors with spin-orbit coupling. We derive analytical expressions of phonon angular momentum induced by the supercurrent by perturbative calculation. The physical interpretation of this effect is also discussed.
