Abstract
In the restricted circular planar problem of three bodies, two bodies (assumed to be point masses and calles primaries) revolve around their center of mass in circular orbits under the influence of their mutual gravitational attraction. A third body (attracted by the previous two but not influencing their motion) moves in the plane defined by the two revolving bodies. The problem is to determine the motion of this third body, (Szebehely, 1967).
