This pedagogical document about stellar photometry - aimed at those for whom astronomical arcana seem arcane - endeavours to explain the concepts of magnitudes, color indices, absolute magnitudes, distance moduli, extinctions, attenuations, color excesses, K corrections, and bolometric corrections. I include some discussion of observational technique, and some discussion of epistemology, but the primary focus here is on the theoretical or interpretive connections between the observational astronomical quantities and the physical properties of the observational targets.

Star-forming clump detection in nearby galaxies using Faster R-CNN and $ugrizy$ imaging data from CLAUDS and HSC-SSP
A six-band Faster R-CNN with the Zoobot backbone detects star-forming clump candidates in ~700,000 local galaxies, claiming ~90% completeness and ~80% purity for clumps brighter than the surveys' detection limits.

The Baryonic Tully-Fisher Relation II: Stellar Mass Models
New WISE W1 color-to-mass-to-light models reproduce Spitzer, S4G and Dustpedia stellar masses, but conflict with the Jarrett et al. GAMA-G23-based calibration by about 0.2 dex.
