Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): The Consistency of GAMA and WISE Derived Mass-to-Light Ratios

Recent work has suggested that mid-IR wavelengths are optimal for estimating the mass-to-light ratios of stellar populations and hence the stellar masses of galaxies. We compare stellar masses deduced from spectral energy distribution (SED)…
