On the basins of convergence in the beyond-Newtonian spatial collinear circular restricted four-body problem with spinning primaries

In this paper, we present the analysis of the Newton–Raphson basins of convergence (NR-BoCs) linked with the relative equilibria (LPs) in the Eulerian configuration of a pseudo-Newtonian planar circular restricted problem of four bodies (SCCR4BP) with spinning primaries. In this configuration of the SCCR4BP, the primaries are laid out in a symmetrical collinear shape in which the two peripheral primaries are of equal mass. We derive the equations of motion by assuming that the system consists of three Kerr-like primaries to examine how the geometry of the basins of convergence (BoCs) associated with the LPs of SCCR4BP are affected by the first-order non-Newtonian contribution to the gravitational field. Additionally, we analyze the correlation among the regions of convergence, the required number of iterations, and the associated probability distributions. Finally, for the quantitative study of the basins of convergence, we measure the uncertainty of the respective basins via the basin entropy and the basin boundary entropy. •On the beyond-Newtonian collinear circular restricted (3 + 1)-body problem with spinning primaries is discussed.•The Newton–Raphson basins of convergence are discussed.•The basin entropy and basin boundary entropy are calculated to measure the uncertainty of the basins.
