Abstract: We prove the non integrability of the colinear $3$ and $4$ body problem, for any masses positive masses. To deal with resistant cases, we present strong integrability criterions for $3$ dimensional homogeneous potentials of degree $-1$, and prove that such cases cannot appear in the $4$ body problem. Following the same strategy, we present a simple proof of non integrability for the planar $n$ body problem. Eventually, we present some integrable cases of the $n$ body problem restricted to some invariant vector spaces.
