Abstract In this work we investigated the effects of small perturbations in the coriolis ( ) and centrifugal ( ) on the position of the triangular libration points of oblate, radiating Restricted Three-Body Problem (RTBP) under the influence of the Poynting-Robertson (PR) drag force. The coordinates of the triangular libration points are obtained and are seen to be affected by the small perturbation in the centrifugal force due to the presence of its parameter in the equations. Our results were verified by applying it to the Kruger- and RXJ binary system using the MATLAB Mathematical software. Keywords: Restricted Three Body Problem, Libration points, Perturbation, PR-Drag.
