Current Star Formation in the Outer Rings among Early-Type Disk Galaxies
  By using the ARRAKIS, the atlas of stellar rings in galaxies (Comeron et al.
2014) based on data of the S4G survey, we have compiled a list of early-type,
S0-Sb, disk galaxies with outer stellar ring-like features (`pure' rings, R, or
pseudorings, R'). Current star formation signatures within these features were
searched for through the NUV-maps of the galaxies provided by the ultraviolet
space telescope GALEX. We have found that current star formation, with the mean
age of the young stellar population less than 200 Myr, is present in about a
half of all `pure' rings; and within the pseudorings it is observed almost
always.
