- Description
- By considering the Higgs mechanism in the framework of a parity-preserving Planar Quantum Electrodynamics, one shows that an attractive electron-electron interaction may dominate. The $e^{-}e^{-}$ interaction potential emerges as the non-relativistic limit of the M{\o }ller scattering amplitude and it results attractive with a suitable choice of parameters. Numerical values of the $e^{-}e^{-}$ binding energy are obtained by solving the two-dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger equation. The existence of bound states is a strong indicative that this model may be adopted to address the pairing mechanism of high-T$_{c}$ superconductivity.
