    The author considers possible periodic solutions of the equations of motion of an \(n\)-body system under no external forces and with periodic internal forces. He considers the possibility of collisions, and points out the importance of Morse index of critical points of Hamilton's principal function. He also discusses in detail the fixed period case and the fixed energy case.
