Restricted Three-Body Problem in Cylindrical Coordinates System

Abstract

In this paper, the equations of motion for spatial restricted circular three body problem will be established using the cylindrical coordinates. Initial value procedure that can be used to compute both the cylindrical and Cartesian coordinates and velocities is also developed.
