In this work , we study the properties of galaxies that are showing the inside-out assembly ( which we call inside-out assembled galaxies ; IOAGs ) , with the main aim to understand better their properties and morphological transformation .
We analysed a sample of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey ( SDSS ) Data Release 8 ( DR8 ) , with stellar masses in the range \log M _ { \star } = 10.73 - 11.03 M _ { \odot { } } at z < 0.1 , and analyze their location in the stellar mass-SFR and the color-stellar mass diagram .
We found that IOAGs have different spectroscopic properties , most of them being classified either as AGN or composite .
We found that the majority of our sources are located below the main sequence of star formation in the SFR-stellar mass diagram , and in the green valley or red sequence in the color-stellar mass diagram .
We argue that IOAGs seem to correspond to the transition area where the galaxies are moving from star-forming to quiescent , and from the blue cloud to the red sequence and/or to recently quenched galaxies .
