Scientific paper

We update the currently known populations of asteroids in major mean motion resonances with Jupiter - namely in the J2/1, J3/2 and J4/3 - and present their orbital and physical characteristics. We focus on an impact -generated Schubart cluster among J3/2 asteroids and we also report an identification of two new asteroids in the J4/3 resonance. We discuss their long-term evolution and possible origin. This work is supported by the Grant Agency of the Czech Republic, grant no. 205/08/P196.
