Newtonian three-body problem

For two centuries, attempts were made at a general solution to the Newtonian three-body problem, until H. Bruns showed that only specific particular solutions were possible. Yet only three families of collisionless periodic orbits were known until recently. Presently, systematic numerical searching for periodic solutions has become possible. Recently, we showed several new families of periodic orbits. More…
