Time it takes a 3-body gravitational system to complete one orbit?
Homework Statement There is no general analytical solution for the motion of a three-body gravitational system. However, there do exist analytical solutions for very special initial conditions. The figure below (see attachment) shows three stars, each of mass m, which move in a two-dimensional...- UTlonghorn
