תקציר	Radiative transfer is the mathematical treatment of how light propagates through matter, including absorption, emission, and scattering. Central to astrophysics and stellar atmosphere modeling, radiative transfer calculations translate physical conditions (density, temperature, composition) into observable spectra and colors, bridging theory and observation.	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.	Transit photometry is an observational technique that detects exoplanets by monitoring the periodic dips in stellar brightness as planets cross in front of their host stars. First systematized by William Borucki in 1984, this method became the most successful exoplanet detection technique, with the Kepler space telescope discovering thousands of confirmed exoplanets using this approach.
