Under the influence of some different perturbations, we study the stability of collinear equilibrium points of the Restricted Three Body Problem. More precisely, the perturbations due to the triaxiality of the bigger primary and the oblateness of the smaller primary, in addition to the relativistic effects, are considered. Moreover, the total potential and the mean motion of the problem are obtained. The equations of motion are derived and linearized around the collinear points. For studying the stability of these points, the characteristic equation and its partial derivatives are derived. Two real and two imaginary roots of the characteristic equation are deduced from the plotted figures throughout the manuscript. In addition, the instability of the collinear points is stressed. Finally, we compute some selected roots corresponding to the eigenvalues which are based on some selected values of the perturbing parameters in the Tables 1, 2.

Background: The location and stability of the equilibrium points are studied for the Planar Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem where the more massive primary is an oblate spheroid. Methods: The mean motion of the equations of motion is formulated from the secular perturbations as derived by(1) and used in(2–4). The singularities of the equations of motion are found for locating the equilibrium points. Their stability is analysed using the linearized variational equations of motion at the equilibrium points. Findings: As the effect of oblateness in the mean motion expression increases, the location and stability of the equilibrium points are affected by the oblateness of the more massive primary. It is interesting to note that all the three collinear points move towards the more massive primary with oblateness. It is a new result. Among the shifts in the locations of the five equilibrium points, the y–location of the triangular equilibrium points relocate the most. It is very interesting to note that the eccentricities (e) of the orbits around L1 and L3 increase, while it decreases around L2 with the addition of oblateness with the new mean motion. The decrease in e is significant in Saturn-Mimas system from 0.95036 to 0.87558. Similarly, the value of the critical mass ratio mc, which sets the limit for the linear stability of the triangular points, further reduces significantly from 0:285: : :A1 to 0:365: : :A1 with the new mean motion. The mean motion sz in the z-direction increases significantly with the new mean motion from 9A1/4 to 9A1/2.

<p>We have examined the stability of triangular equilibrium points in photogravitational elliptic restricted three-body problem with Poynting-Robertson drag. We suppose that smaller primary is an oblate spheroid. We have taken bigger primary as radiating. We have found the location of triangular equilibrium points and characteristic equation of the problem. We conclude that triangular equilibrium points remain unstable, different from classical case.</p>

The present paper deals with the study of the motion’s properties of the infinitesimal variable mass body moving in the same orbital plan as two massive bodies (considered as primaries). It is assumed that the massive bodies have radiating effects, have oblate shapes, and are moving in circular orbits around their common center of mass. Using the procedures established by Singh and Abouelmagd, we determined the equations of motion of the infinitesimal body for which we assumed that under the effects of radiation and oblateness of the primaries, its mass varies following Jean’s law. We evaluated analytically and numerically the locations of equilibrium points and examined the stability of these equilibrium points. Finally, we found that all the points are unstable.

The Sitnikov's problem is a special case of restricted three body problem if the primaries are of equal masses (m1 = m2 = 1/2) moving in circular orbits under Newtonian force of attraction and the third body of mass m3 moves along the line perpendicular to plane of motion of primaries. Here oblate spheroid primaries are taken. The solution of the Sitnikov's circular restricted three body problem has been checked when the primaries are oblate spheroid. We observed that solution is depended on oblate parameter A of the primaries and independent variable τ = ηt. For this the stability of non-trivial solutions with the characteristic equation is studied. The general equation of motion of the infinitesimal mass under mutual gravitational field of two oblate primaries are seen at equilibrium points. Then the stability of infinitesimal third body m3 has been calculated. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/bibechana.v11i0.10395 BIBECHANA 11(1) (2014) 149-156

The oblateness and the photogravitational effects of both the primaries on the location and the stability of the triangular equilibrium points in the elliptical restricted three-body problem have been discussed. The stability of the triangular points under the photogravitational and oblateness effects of both the primaries around the binary systems Achird, Lyeten, Alpha Cen-AB, Kruger 60, and Xi-Bootis, has been studied using simulation techniques by drawing different curves of zero velocity.

AbstractThe equations of motion of the planar elliptic restricted three-body problem are transformed to four decoupled Hill’s equations. By using the Floquet theorem, a perturbative solution to the oscillator equations with time-dependent periodic coefficients are presented. We clarify the transformation details that provide the applicability of the method. The form of newly derived equations inherently comprises the stability boundaries around the triangular Lagrangian points. The analytic approach is valid for system parameters $$0 < e \le 0.05$$ 0 < e ≤ 0.05 and $$0 < \mu \le 0.01$$ 0 < μ ≤ 0.01 where e denotes the eccentricity of the primaries, while $$\mu $$ μ is the mass parameter. Possible application to known extrasolar planetary systems is also demonstrated.

AbstractThe present paper investigates the motion of the variable infinitesimal body in circular restricted four variable bodies problem. We have constructed the equations of motion of the infinitesimal variable mass under the effect of source of radiation pressure due to which albedo effects are produced by another two primaries and one primary is considered as an oblate body which is placed at the triangular equilibrium point of the classical restricted three-body problem and also the variation of Jacobi Integral constant has been determined. We have studied numerically the equilibrium points, Poincaré surface of sections and basins of attraction in five cases (i. Third primary is placed at one of the triangular equilibrium points of the classical restricted three-body problem, ii. Variation of masses, iii. Solar radiation pressure, iv. Albedo effect, v. Oblateness effect.) by using Mathematica software. Finally, we have examined the stability of the equilibrium points and found that all the equilibrium points are unstable.

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.
