Popis: We review some recent progress on the research of the periodic orbits of the N-body problem,and propose a numerical scheme to determine the spatial doubly-symmetric periodic orbits (SDSPs for short). Both comet- and lunar-type SDSPs in the circular restricted three-body problem are computed, as well as the Hill-type SDSPs in Hill's lunar problem. Doubly symmetries are exploited so that the SDSPs can be computed efficiently. The monodromy matrix can be calculated by the information of one fourth period. The periodicity conditions are solved by Broyden's method with a line-search, and the algorithm is reviewed. Some numerical examples show that the scheme is very efficient. For a fixed period ratio and a given acute angle, there exist sixteen cases of initial values. For the restricted three-body problem, the cases of "Copenhagen problem" and the Sun-Jupiter-asteroid model are considered. New SDSPs are also numerically found in Hill's lunar problem. Though the period ratio should be small theoretically, some new periodic orbits are found when the ratio is not too small, and most of the searched SDSPs are linearly stable.
