Abstract

We show the existence of a new class of periodic orbits in the three-dimensional elliptic restricted three-body problem in the case of equal masses of the primaries. The doubly symmetric periodic solutions found are perturbations of very large circular Keplerian orbits lying in a plane perpendicular to that of the primaries. They exist for a discrete sequence of values of the mean motion, irrespective of the values of the eccentricity of the primaries orbit.
