        Description:

          Among the most important physical properties we often need to measure in extragalactic astrophysics is the stellar mass of distant galaxies. In principle this is not a trivial question as due to the distance of these objects we can not resolve, let along count, the billions and billions of individual stars they contain. As a result we have to rely on the integrated light emitted by the galaxies and find a way to estimate from this the mass and type of stars they contain
