Branches of periodic orbits for the planar restricted 3-body problem
We describe a method for studying the existence and the linear stability of
branches of periodic solutions for a dynamical system with a parameter. We
apply the method to the planar restricted 3-body problem extending the results
of [A]. More precisely, we prove the existence of some continuous
branches of periodic orbits with the energy or the masses of the primaries as
parameters, and provide an approximation of the orbits with rigorous bounds.
We prove the linear stability or instability of the orbits.
