Current Star Formation in the Outer Rings among Early-type Disk Galaxies

We use ARRAKIS, the atlas of stellar rings in galaxies (Comerón et al. 2014), based on data of the S4G survey, to compile a list of early-type, S0-Sb, disk galaxies with outer stellar ring-like features (‘pure’ rings, R, or pseudorings, R′).
