Abstract

We study loci and properties of a Parabola-inscribed family of Poncelet polygons whose caustic is a focus-centered circle. This family is the polar image of a special case of the bicentric family with respect to its circumcircle. We describe closure conditions, curious loci, and new conserved quantities.
