Studying the stability of equilibrium solutions in a planar circular restricted four-body problem

Abstract: The Newtonian circular restricted four-body problem is considered. We have obtained nonlinear algebraic equations, determining equilibrium solutions in the rotating frame, and found six possible equilibrium configurations of the system. Studying the stability of equilibrium solutions, we have proved that the radial equilibrium solutions are unstable while the bisector equilibrium solutions are stable in Liapunov's sense if the mass parameter satisfies µ ∈ (0, µ 0 ), where µ 0 is0 a sufficiently small number, a… Show more

“…The case μ d where the fourth-order terms cannot decide the stability is discussed in Section 5 together with the special cases at μ 3 , μ 2 and μ 1 . When N = 2, our formulas simplify further and we compare our findings with those of Grebenikov et al in [3] in most sections.…”

“…Our investigation started with trying to verify and extend the work of Grebenikov. We discovered that the main facts given in [3] are correct, but that they have an error in their symbolic computations as the graph in their Fig. 3 does not match ours.…”
