Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\Q$. A prime $p$ is called a surjective prime for $E$ if the mod-$p$ Galois representation \[ \rho_{E,p}: Gal(\overline{\Q}/\Q) \to \GL(2,\F_p) \] attached to $E$ is surjective.

Conjecturally, when $E$ does not have CM, all primes $p>37$ are surjective primes.
