Database programmers use junction tables to implement m:n relations. (wikipedia.) Junction objects follow the same logic as junction tables. A junction object contains two object lists, one for the n-side, one for the m-side. Here is a sample for a junction object implementing an engagement, i.e. an m:n-relationship between movies and actors. (One actor is hired for more than one movie; one movie has more than one actor.) The junction object holds the data for a single actor's engagement: a reference to the actor and a reference to the movie. This roughly corresponds to a single record in a junction table. We use bidirectional relationships between both the Actor-Engagement relation and the Movie/Engagement relation. This means that both the Actor and the Movie class must have an object list with Engagements.

// File: Junction.cs

using System;
using System.Linq;
using Remotion.Data.DomainObjects;
using Remotion.Data.DomainObjects.Queries;

namespace Junction.Domain
{
  [DBTable]
  public class Engagement : DomainObject
  {

    [DBBidirectionalRelation("Engagements")]
    public virtual Actor Actor { get; set; }
    [DBBidirectionalRelation("Engagements")]
    public virtual Movie Movie { get; set; }

    static public Engagement NewObject ()
    {
      return DomainObject.NewObject<Engagement> ();
    }

    static public Engagement NewObject (Actor actor)
    {
      var rv = DomainObject.NewObject<Engagement> ();
      rv.Actor = actor;
      return rv;
    }
  }

  [DBTable]
  public class Actor : DomainObject
  {
    public virtual string FirstName { get; set; }
    public virtual string Surname { get; set; }
    [DBBidirectionalRelation("Actor")]
    public virtual ObjectList<Engagement> Engagements { get; set; }
    
    static public Actor NewObject ()
    {
      return DomainObject.NewObject<Actor> ();
    }

    static public Actor[] GetActors ()
    {
      var query = from a in QueryFactory.CreateLinqQuery<Actor> ()
                  select a;
      return query.ToArray ();
    }
  }

  [DBTable]
  public class Movie : DomainObject
  {
    public virtual string Title { get; set; }
    [DBBidirectionalRelation("Movie")]
    public virtual ObjectList<Engagement> Engagements { get; set; }
    static public Movie NewObject ()
    {
      return DomainObject.NewObject<Movie> ();
    }

    static public Movie[] GetMovies ()
    {
      var query = from m in QueryFactory.CreateLinqQuery<Movie> ()
                  select m;
      return query.ToArray ();
    }
  }
}

Now you can use these classes as expected. Most of the interesting work is done by the object lists in the bidirectional relations.
