Abstract
We consider a qualitative description of the repulsive coulombian plane isosceles 3-body problem, by blowing up the infinity. An especial attention is paid to some remarkable solutions where the symmetrical particles escape, while the third one tends to an equilibrium position close to the center of mass of the others. However, these solutions are very sensitive to changes in the initial conditions. Analytical prolongation permits to extend our description to the corresponding celestial mechanics problem, obtained by changing sign to the potential.
