Abstract
In this paper we numerically explore the convergence properties of the pseudo-Newtonian circular restricted problem of three and four primary bodies. The classical Newton-Raphson iterative scheme is used for revealing the basins of convergence and their respective fractal basin boundaries on the complex plane. A thorough and systematic analysis is conducted in an attempt to determine the influence of the transition parameter on the convergence properties of the system. Additionally, the roots (numerical attractors) of the system and the basin entropy of the convergence diagrams are monitored as a function of the transition parameter, thus allowing us to extract useful conclusions. The probability distributions, as well as the distributions of the required number of iterations are also correlated with the corresponding basins of convergence.
