Abstract
We have studied the bifurcations of the main families of periodic orbits in the restricted three-body problem in the case of equal masses (µ=0.5). These are the families a,b,c,f,h,g,i,k,l and n (the families a,f,g are symmetric to b,h,i, respectively). We have studied these families near the critical points (Hénon 1965) b1, b2,b3,b26,b27 for the family b (where the subscript 2 means double periodic orbits), c1,c2,c5 for the family c, h5,h26,h29 for the family h, i3, for the family i, k2 for the family k, ℓ1,ℓ2, for the family ℓ and n2, n23,n24 for the family n, and we found the families that bifurcate from the above at the critical points.
