About: Central configuration
In celestial mechanics and the mathematics of the n-body problem, a central configuration is a system of point masses with the property that each mass is pulled by the combined gravitational force of the system directly towards the center of mass, with acceleration proportional to its distance from the center. Central configurations may be studied in Euclidean spaces of any dimension, although only dimensions one, two, and three are directly relevant for celestial mechanics.
