I.B.1

m₃ = 10

From Li & Liao (2017)

I.B.1 m₃ = 10 is a periodic orbit of the planar three-body problem: three masses in the ratio 1 : 1 : 10 that return to their starting positions and velocities every 47.704 time units, published by Li & Liao (2017). Class I.B orbits, for equal and unequal masses. It is linearly stable (largest Floquet multiplier 1.000), so a small nudge only makes it wobble. The bodies pass within 0.0000351 of each other at a top speed of 72, line up 264 times a period, and the computed loop closes to 9.0×10⁻²³.
