AbstractThe perturbed restricted three body problem has been reviewed. The mass of the primaries are assumed as triaxial. The locations of the collinear points have been computed. Series forms of these locations are obtained as new analytical results. In order to introduce a semi-analytical view, a Mathematica program has been constructed to graph the locations of collinear points versus the whole range of the mass ratio μ taking into account the triaxiality. The resultant figures have been analyzed

Abstract This paper aims to study the effect of the triaxiality and the oblateness as a special case of primaries on the locations and stability of the collinear equilibrium points of the elliptic restricted three body problem (in brief ERTBP). The locations of the perturbed collinear equilibrium points are first determined in terms of mass ratio of the problem (the smallest mass divided by the total mass of the system) and different concerned perturbing factors. The difference between the locations of collinear points in the classical case of circular restricted three body problem and those in the perturbed case is represented versus mass ratio over its range. The linear stability of the collinear points is discussed. It is observed that the stability regions for our model depend mainly on the eccentricity of the orbits in addition to the considered perturbations.

Progression of f-type family of periodic orbits, their nature, stability and location nearer the smaller primary for different mass ratios in the framework of circular restricted three-body problem is studied using Poincaré surfaces of section. The orbits around the smaller primary are found to decrease in size with increase in Jacobian Constant C, and move very close towards the smaller primary. The orbit bifurcates into two orbits with the increase in C to 4.2. The two orbits that appear for this value of C belong to two adjacent separate families: one as direct orbit belonging to family g of periodic orbits and other one as retrograde orbit belonging to family f of periodic orbits. This bifurcation is interesting. These orbits increase in size with increase in mass ratio. The elliptic orbits found within the mass ratio 0 < µ ≤ 0.1 have eccentricity less than 0.2 and the orbits found above the mass ratio µ > 0.1 are elliptical orbits with eccentricity above 0.2. Deviations in the parameters: eccentricity, semi-major axis and time period of these orbits with solar radiation pressure q are computed in the frame work of photogravitational restricted Three-body problem in addition to the restricted three-body problem. These parameters are found to decrease with increase in the solar radiation pressure.

AbstractIn the restricted problem of three point masses, the positions of the equilibrium points are well known and are tabulated. When the satellite is a rigid body, these values no longer correspond to the equilibrium points. This paper seeks to determine the magnitudes of the discrepancies.
