We have examined the effects of Albedo in the elliptic restricted three-body problem under an oblate primary, a triaxial secondary and a potential due to belt for the Earth-Moon system. We have found that as the perturbed parameters increases, the possible boundary regions of the primary come closer to one other, allowing particles to freely travel from one region to the next and possibly merging the permissible regions. Our study has revealed that, the formation of triangular libration points depend on the Albedo effects, semi-major axis, eccentricity of the orbits, triaxiallity and the potential due to belt. As the aforementioned parameters increase, the triangular positions \({L}_{4}\) and \({L}_{5}\) move towards the centre of origin in cases 1, 2, 3, 4 and away from the centre of the origin in cases 5, 6 and 7. Considering the range of a stable and unstable libration point for the problem under study given as \(0<\mu <{\mu }_{c}\) for stable libration points and \({\mu }_{c}\le \mu \le \frac{1}{2}\) for unstable libration points, our study has established that the triangular libration points are respectively stable and unstable for cases 1, 2, 6 and cases 3, 4, 5, 7. Our study has also revealed that each set of values has at least one characteristic complex root with a positive real part. Hence, the triangular libration points for the Earth-Moon system are unstable in the sense of Lyapunov. The Earth-Moon system's Poincare Surface of Section (PSS) has demonstrated that a small change in the initial conditions, the semi-major axis, and the eccentricity of the orbits have affected the system's behavior dramatically. Further, it is seen that a chaotic dynamical behavior of the system results into either regular or irregular orbits.
