The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) observed 1023 Hildas and 1739 Jovian Trojans detected during the cryogenic part of its survey. This represents an increase in the number of objects with thermal models in the two populations by an order of magnitude compared to previous surveys. In this paper we discuss the results of the thermal modeling of these observations and its implications for two populations. We derive albedo and size-frequency distributions and present a method for deriving taxonomic classifications based on the visible albedo and the relative reflectance in the 3.4 and 4.6μm bands.
