    In the frame of a three-dimensional three-body problem the authors integrate numerically the trajectories of planetesimals. Nebular gas drag in taken into account. Two dynamical resonances of Sun-Jupiter planetesimals are investigated, especially resonance trapping and \(3:2\), \(2:1\) resonance crossing. Eccentricities are excited to high values, and a secular decay of the semi-major axis is observed.
