STANDBY — choose a system, then place a test mass at any Lagrange point to test its stability.
ILLUSTRATIVE MODEL — units are the standard CRTBP normalization (G=1, total mass=1, separation=1, orbital angular velocity=1). L1/L2/L3 solved numerically (Newton–Raphson) from the effective-potential equilibrium condition; L4/L5 are exact equilateral-triangle points. Test-mass motion integrates the full rotating-frame equations of motion, including the Coriolis term, via RK4 — this is a real (if idealized, planar, circular-orbit) dynamics simulation.
