In earlier work, we presented a collection of 20 two-dimensional symmetric periodic orbits for the restricted three-body problem and compared the ubiquitous matlab integrators ode45 and ode113 on the orbits. The current work greatly extends this. We present a diverse collection of 28 symmetric and asymmetric, stable and unstable periodic orbits for the two- and three-dimensional problems and compare the performance of eight general purpose integrators on the orbits. |
