Bound States in the Noncommutative Plane

We demonstrate that the (non-relativistic) electrostatic potential felt by fermions or bosons - minimally coupled to a Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory in the noncommutative plane, can generate bound states between like charges. The result is reminiscent of models in commutative spacetime with non-minimal Pauli magnetic coupling. Results up to one loop and all orders in $\theta$- the noncommutative parameter, are under study.
