arXiv:0709.1394
Abstract
Motivated by recent progress in the study of early-type galaxies owing to technological advances, the launch of new space telescopes and large ground-based surveys, we attempt a short review of our current understanding of the recent star-formation activity in such intriguing galactic systems.
