    The paper deals with a new type of vortices, called Chern-Simons vortices, suggested recently by Jackiw and Weinberg as well as by Hong, Kim and Pac in the problem of charged vortices with gauge field governed by the Chern-Simons terms of the action. The author establishes the existence theorem for these vortices. The main part of the paper is the investigation of analytical and variational problems raised from the Chern-Simons equation.
