Fine structure in early-type galaxies is considered to be among the more robust indicators of a past merging or acquisition event, although growing evidence from numerical simulations suggests that fine structure may be also interpreted in a ‘weak interaction’ framework. We present a morphological study of a sample composed of 61 ‘isolated’ early-type galaxies addressed to the detection of fine st...
