The Predictions of Noncollinear Equilibria Positions in ER3BP with Yukawa-Like Corrections

Abstract

The existence and stability of noncollinear equilibrium points in the elliptic restricted three-body problem under the consideration of Yukawa correction to Newtonian potential are studied in this paper. The effects of various parameters (μ, ê, α, and λ) on the noncollinear equilibrium points are discussed briefly, and it is found that only ordinate of noncollinear equilibria E4,5 is affected by Yukawa correction while abscissa is affected by only mass parameter μ. The noncollinear equilibria was found linearly stable for a critical mass parameter μc. A critical point λ = ½ is also obtained for the critical mass parameter μc, and at this point, the critical mass parameter μc has maximum or minimum values according to α < 0 or α > 0, respectively.
