Radar imaging of seven near-Earth asteroids in June-September 2005

We prop ose delay-Doppler radar imaging, physical mo deling, satellite searches, and orbit refinement of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) 5660 (1974 MA), 22771 (1999 CU3), 1992 UY4, 2002 EX12, 2002 SR41, 2003 CY18, and 2003 YN107 during June-Septemb er 2005. Highlights include the first known Earth quasi-satellite, which is also a Yarkovsky effect candidate; two ob jects that could b e close to 2 km in diameter; and one kilometer-sized NEA that is the strongest known target this year. Six ob jects will b e detected by radar for the first time and two are classified as "Potentially Hazardous" by the Minor Planet Center.
