Mathematicians uncover 12,000 new solutions to 'elusive' 3-body problem

An international team of mathematicians claims to have discovered 12,000 new solutions to the three-body problem in physics and mathematics. These solutions, which have been made available on the arXiv database, expand upon the few hundred known scenarios. The three-body problem involves calculating stable orbits when three objects interact with each other gravitationally.
