Tiivistelmä	Stellar population synthesis is a technique for modeling the integrated light from a galaxy by summing the contributions of all individual stars formed at different times and with different masses and metallicities. Developed systematically by Bruzual and Charlot (2003), this approach enables estimation of fundamental galaxy properties from observations without detailed knowledge of individual stars.	Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) fitting is the technique of comparing observed photometric measurements of galaxies across many wavelengths against theoretical predictions from stellar population synthesis models. By fitting models to observations, astronomers estimate galaxy properties including redshift, mass, age, star formation rate, and dust content without requiring expensive spectroscopic observations.
