Scientific paper

We estimate the size and orbital distributions of Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs) that are expected to be in the 1:1 mean motion resonance with Venus in a steady state scenario. We predict that the number of such objects with absolute magnitudes H<18 and H<22 is 0.14±0.03 and 3.5±0.7, respectively. We also map the distribution in the sky of these Venus coorbital NEAs and we see that these objects, as the Earth coorbital NEAs studied in a previous paper, are more likely to be found by NEAs search programs that do not simply observe around opposition and that scan large areas of the sky.
