## Abstract We show that the planar circular restricted three‐body problem is of restricted contact type for all energies below the first critical value (action of the first Lagrange point) and for energies slightly above it. This opens up the possibility of using the technology of contact topology

Contact Riemannian geometry is used to study equilibrium thermodynamical systems as embedded submanifolds of the thermodynamical phase space. A metric compatible with the contact structure is chosen and proved to be invariant under Legendre transformations. With this metric structure all curvature i
