The third-order parametric expansions given by Buck in 1920 for the three-dimensional periodic solutions about the triangular equilibrium points of the restricted problem are improved by fourth-order terms. The corresponding family of periodic orbits, which are symmetrical with respect to the (x, y) plane, is computed numerically for mu = 0.00095. It is found that the family emanating from L4 terminates at the other triangular point L5 while it bifurcates with the family of three-dimensional periodic orbits originating at the collinear equilibrium point L3. This family consists of stable and unstable members. A second family of nonsymmetric three-dimensional periodic orbits is found to bifurcate from the previous one.
