             abstract = "Assume a constellation of satellites is flying near a given 
                         nominal trajectory around L4 or L5 in the Earth-Moon system in 
                         such a way that there is some freedom in the selection of the 
                         geometry of the constellation. We are interested in avoiding large 
                         variations of the mutual distances between spacecraft. In this 
                         case, the existence of regions of zero and minimum relative radial 
                         acceleration with respect to the nominal trajectory will prevent 
                         from the expansion or contraction of the constellation. In the 
                         other case, the existence of regions of maximum relative radial 
                         acceleration with respect to the nominal trajectory will produce a 
                         larger expansion and contraction of the constellation. The goal of 
                         this paper is to study these regions in the scenario of the 
                         Circular Restricted Three Body Problem by means of a linearization 
                         of the equations of motion relative to the periodic orbits around 
                         L4 or L5. This study corresponds to a preliminar planar formation 
                         flight dynamics about triangular libration points in the 
                         Earth-Moon system. Additionally, the cost estimate to maintain the 
                         constellation in the regions of zero and minimum relative radial 
                         acceleration or keeping a rigid configuration is computed with the 
                         use of the residual acceleration concept. At the end, the results 
                         are compared with the dynamical behavior of the deviation of the 
                         constellation from a periodic orbit.",
