Scientific paper

The NEOWISE enhancement to the Wide-field Infrared Explorer (WISE) mission has resulted in detections of more than 157,000 minor planets in thermal infrared wavelength, representing an increase in the number of objects observed of nearly two orders of magnitude over the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS).[1,2] The survey encompasses near-Earth objects, comets, main belt asteroids, Hildas, Trojans, Centaurs and scattered-disk objects. We will summarize the scientific results of the survey to date, focusing on the combination of available visible and nearinfrared ancillary data with NEOWISE as well as studies of near-Earth objects.
