Descripción
Recent theoretical and observational works claim the existence of
galaxies with a characteristic age profile consisting on a negative
radial trend followed by a smooth age upturn in its outskirts
(``U-shape''). This shape has been generally related to down-bending
light distributions; however, the existence of a real link between
observed Surface Brightness (SB) profiles and changes in stellar
properties such as age is still unclear.
