Abstract

A part of the familyh of retrograde periodic orbits of the restricted problem (μ=0.5) is examined in relation to the families of periodic orbits of the second generation branching from it. Many such families are determined and the significance of the configuration of their characteristics for the determination of the boundary of the stability region around this part ofh is discussed.
