Stellar archeology of the nearby LINER galaxies NGC 4579 and NGC 4736
Abstract
Stellar archeology of nearby LINER galaxies may reveal if there is a stellar young population that may be responsible for the LINER phenomenon. We show results for the classical LINER galaxies NGC 4579 and NGC 4736 and find no evidence of such populations.
