Search for L4 Earth Trojan asteroids with the 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope

Junqiang Lu, Lulu Fan, Shaohan Wang +16

Earth Trojan asteroids (ETAs) are a mysterious population, and dynamically stable ETAs, if primordial, could be "living fossils" of the early solar system. To date, there are only…
