Stability of the coplanar libration points in the photogravitational three-body problem
Abstract
The relative equilibrium positions (coplanar libration points) are investigated for a particle in a gas-dust cloud subject to the gravitational field of a binary star system, with allowance for radiation pressure. The dynamical model adopted is the restricted circular photogravitational three-body problem. Existence domains are established for the three-parameter family of coplanar libration points, and its Liapunov stability is tested.
