We study the Robe's restricted three-body problem. Such a motion was firstly studied by A. G. Robe in \cite{Robe}, which is used to model small oscillations of the earth's inner core taking into account the moon attraction. For the linear…

We show that any bounded zero-angular momentum solution for the Newtonian three-body problem must suffer infinitely many eclipses, or collinearities, provided that it does not suffer a triple collision. Motivation for the result comes from…
