Notes:
The problem of four interacting point vortices on the unbounded plane with vanishing total circulation and vanishing impulse is reduced to a three-body problem analogous to the three-vortex problem on the unbounded plane. A "phase plane analysis" using trilinear coordinates, similar to that used for the three-vortex problem, is presented and used to discuss details of the motion. The methodology and results complement earlier analyses of the same problem by Eckhardt and Rott. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
