The Arjuna asteroids (also known as "Arjunas") are a dynamical group of asteroids in the Solar System. Arjunas are near-Earth objects (NEOs) whose orbits are very Earth-like in character, having low inclination, orbital periods close to one year, and low eccentricity. The group is named after Arjuna, a central hero in Hindu mythology. The definition is somewhat vague and overlaps the definition of the three well-established Apollo, Amor and Aten groups. They constitute a dynamically cold group of small NEOs that experience repeated trappings in the 1:1 mean-motion resonance with the Earth.[1][2]

Members

Potential members of the Arjuna group with their Apollo (APO) or Aten (ATE) group classification in parenthesis, include:
