Abstract: Trivial choreographies are special periodic solutions of the planar three-body problem. In this work we use a modified Newton's method based on the continuous analog of Newton's method and a high precision arithmetic for a specialized numerical search for new trivial choreographies. As a result of the search we computed a high precision database of 462 such orbits, including 397 new ones. The initial conditions and the periods of all found solutions are given with 180 correct decimal digits. 108 of the choreographies are linearly stable, including 99 new ones. The linear stability is tested by a high precision computing of the eigenvalues of the monodromy matrices.
