An algorithm for the numerical determination of asymmetric periodic solutions of the planar general three body problem is described. The elements of the “variational” matrix which are used in this algorithm are computed by numerical integration of the corresponding “variational” equations. These elements are also used in the study of the linear isoenergetic stability. A number of asymmetric periodic orbits are presented and their stability parameters are given.
