Abstract
This paper studies the existence and stability of non-collinear equilibrium points in the elliptic restricted four body problem with bigger primary as a source of radiation and other two primaries having equal masses as oblate spheroid. In the elliptic restricted four body problem, three of the bodies are moving in elliptical orbit around their common centre of mass fixed at the origin of the coordinate system, while the fourth one is infinitesimal. Three pairs of non-collinear points are obtained symmetric with respect to x-axis. We found the equilibrium points are stable in linear sense. We also investigate the pulsating zero velocity surfaces and basin of attraction for varying value of oblateness coefficient and radiation pressure parameter.
