Periodic Solutions of the Elliptic Isosceles Restricted Three-body Problem with Collision

  • Published:
Journal of Dynamics and Differential Equations Aims and scope Submit manuscript

The elliptic isosceles restricted three-body problem with collision, is a restricted three-body problem where the primaries move having consecutive elliptic collisions and the infinitesimal mass is moving in the plane perpendicular to the primaries motion that passes through the center of mass of the primary system. Our purpose in this paper is to prove the existence of many families of periodic solutions using Continuation’s method, where the perturbing parameter is related with the energy of the primaries. This work is merely analytic and uses symmetry conditions and appropriate coordinates.
