The elementary interaction of a grain boundary or twin plane is computed using Thuneberg's formulation in the Ginzburg-Landau regime and simply extending this to low temperatures. The computation is carried out both for isolated flux lines and close to Be2 for strongly overlapping vortices. The vol
