Abstract

We consider the ‘basic’ families of plane-symmetric simply-periodic orbits in the Sun-Jupiter case of the plane restricted three-body problem and we study their horizontal and vertical stabilities. We give the critical orbits of these families, corresponding to the vertical stability parameter ∣αν∣ = 1 and in future communications we shall give the three-dimensional families which emanate from these plane bifurcations.
