Abstract

We consider the Newtonian planar three--body problem with positive masses m1m_1, m2m_2, m3m_3. We prove that it does not have an additional first integral meromorphic in the complex neighborhood of the parabolic Lagrangian orbit besides three exceptional cases mimj/(mk)2=1/3 \sum m_i m_j/(\sum m_k)^2= 1/3, 23/332^3/3^3, 2/322/3^2 where the linearized equations are shown to be partially integrable. This result completes the non-integrability analysis of the three-body problem started in our previous papers and based of the Morales-Ramis-Ziglin approach.
