Simultaneous binary collisions in the equal-mass collinear four-body problem

In the four-body problem, it is not clear what initial conditions can lead to simultaneous binary collision (SBC), even in the collinear case. In this paper, we study SBC in the equal-mass collinear four-body problem and have a partial answer for initial conditions leading to SBC. After introduc...
