Scientific paper

In the present investigation of the evolution of orbits at the 2:3 resonance with Neptune, the six-body problem posed by the sun, four giant planets and a test body is integrated using the symplectic 'swift integrator' of Levinson and Duncan (1994) for an integration span of 20 years. It is found that even variations in initial orientations and initial positions in orbit can cause large vriations in the dependencies of eccentricity, inclination, and semimajor axis on time.
