Scientific paper

The paper deals with the photogravitational model proposed in 1923 by the Romanian astronomer Constantin Popovici for the two-body problem. We show here the relationship between Popovici's model and Poyting-Robertson's effect. The variation of the orbital energy is given for Poynting-Robertson's effect. Popovici's model is extended for the restricted three-body problem. The equations of motion are written in a rotating, barycentric, dimensionless coordinate system and comments on the equilibrium points and the Jacobi-energy are added to our study. Possibilities of applications to the solar system are also discussed.
