Predicting the global far-infrared SED of galaxies via machine learning techniques

W. Dobbels, M. Baes, S. Viaene +10

Dust plays an important role in shaping a galaxy's spectral energy distribution (SED). It absorbs ultraviolet (UV) to near-infrared (NIR) radiation and re-emits this energy in the…
