A Twilight Search for Atiras, Vatiras and Co-orbital Asteroids: Preliminary Results

Quanzhi Ye, Frank J. Masci, Wing-Huen Ip +12

Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) that orbit the Sun on or within Earth's orbit are tricky to detect for Earth-based observers due to their proximity to the Sun in the sky. These small bod…
