Physicists Milovan Šuvakov and Veljko Dmitrašinović at the Institute of Physics Belgrade, discovered 13 new families of solutions to the problem, adding to the 3 families earlier. So far we have:
- Lagrange-Euler family (1800's)
- Broucke-Hénon family (1970's)
- Figure-eight family (1993)
- Šuvakov-Dmitrašinović suite (2013)
Recent results are described in 'Three Classes of Newtonian Three-Body Planar Periodic Orbits.'
