Galaxy SED Fitting
Astrophysics · Galaxy properties
Introduction
1 / 4Galaxy SED Fitting (Galaxy properties) is a parameter estimation in Astrophysics. The forward model maps the hidden galaxy parameter vector to a measurement, corrupted by observation gaussian. The inverse goal is to recover the galaxy parameter vector from the observed data.

Full regime certificate
Existence of the recovered galaxy_parameter_vector is guaranteed within the declared Omega bounds. Uniqueness holds on the measurement-supported subspace; out-of-support modes are controlled by declared priors. Stability is conditionally stable (kappa_eff ~= 80); AGN_contamination dominates the stability cliff; the remaining mismatch parameters contribute higher-order bias terms. Observation gaussian sets the irreducible data-fidelity floor.

You are helping me submit a MODIFICATION of L1-377 (Galaxy SED Fitting) to the PWM Protocol — a Principle (L1) artifact. I will paste a Markdown template (or the current L1-377.md). 1. Rewrite the Markdown so the science is correct and clearly explained for my change. 2. Regenerate the sibling L1-377.json so EVERY field matches the Markdown. 3. Keep the schema in the "File Mapping" footer at the bottom of the MD. 4. Keep the parent reference unchanged unless I ask otherwise. Rules: the Markdown is the source of truth; use SI units; do NOT invent benchmark scores. Output each file in its own fenced code block tagged with the filename.
