Abstract We give a computer-assisted proof of the full listing of central configuration for n-body problem for Newtonian potential on the plane for $$n=5,6,7$$ n = 5 , 6 , 7 with equal masses. We show all these central configurations have a reflective symmetry with respect to some line. For $$n=8,9,10$$ n = 8 , 9 , 10 , we establish the existence of central configurations without any reflectional symmetry.
