Abstract
In the Euclidean space E^3, it is well known that normal curves, i.e., curves with position vector always lying in their normal plane, are spherical curves [3]. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a curve to be a spherical curve in Euclidean 3-space are given in [10] and [11]. In this paper, we give some characterizations of spacelike normals curves with spacelike, timelike or null principal normal in the Minkowski 3-space E^3_1.
