Abstract
Studying the general kinetic behaviour of a charged particle in the space of three celestial bodies electromagnetic field we give here for the first time the equilibrium configurations of the dynamical system with all the variational equations and integrals. Also we develop the procedure we follow for locating the planar and the three-dimensional equilibrium points demonstrating an extensive numerical investigation of them by giving their number under the influence of the variation of the magnetic field and in all the cases we list their coordinates and energy.
