Descripción
As part of an ongoing project aimed at studying the age and metallicity
gradients of the stellar populations along the bars of a sample of
barred spirals of different morphological types, we present our first
results on NGC 4314 (SBa). We have obtained optical and NIR colours and
spectral indices along the bar and we interpret some of these results
here and discuss their uncertainties on the basis of single stellar
population models. In a preliminary analysis, we constrain the limits
for the age and metallicity of the nucleus and two selected regions in
the star formation ring of NGC 4314, characterizing both as metal rich
