Description

The photogravitational restricted three body within the framework of the post-Newtonian approximation is carried out. The mass of the primaries are assumed changed under the effect of continuous radiation process. The locations of the triangular points are computed. Series forms of these locations are obtained as new analytical results. In order to introduce a semi-analytical view, a Mathematica program is constructed so as to draw the locations of triangular points versus the whole range of the mass ratio μ taking into account the photogravitational effects and/or the relativistic corrections. All the obtained figures are analyzed. The size of relativistic effects of about.08 normalized distance unit is observed.
