The method originally developed by Prendergast (1982) for second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations is used to find approximate solutions of the Hamiltonian equations of motion in the form of rational functions. This procedure makes it possible to find simple families of periodic orbits and bifurcations of double-period families of periodic orbits, which agree very well with the numerically calculated orbits.
