We study the Thirring model in three spacetime dimensions, by means of Monte Carlo simulation on lattice sizes 83and 123, for number of Fermion flavors NF= 2, 4, 6. For sufficiently strong interaction strength, we find that spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking occurs for NF= 2, 4, in accordance with the predictions of the Schwinger-Dyson approach. The phase transitions which occur are continuous and with critical scaling behaviour depending on NF. For NF= 6 our results are preliminary, and no firm conclusions about the existence or otherwise of chiral symmetry breaking are possible.
