Scientific paper

In the regions of mean diurnal motions between the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn, predicted earlier by the authors, five asteroids have been discovered that move in 1:2 and 2:3 Lindblad orbital resonances with Jupiter (``external orbital commensurability'') and in 2:1 resonance with Saturn (``internal version of commensurability''). In addition to this, in the precalculated stable resonance zones between the giant planets Saturn and Uranus, three objects have been found that possess third-order (2:5) orbital commensurability with Saturn; nine objects have been discovered between the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, whose mean motions are in 1:3 and 1:4 orbital resonances with Saturn, and more than 200 libration-stable objects, linked by lower-order orbital resonances with Neptune and Uranus have been found in the Kuiper belt.
