Chemodynamical modeling of young disk galaxies [PDF]
, 2003 Disk galaxies are very complex systems consisting of several components like the bulge, the disk and the halo. Additionally, substructures like extended HI disks, thin and thick stellar disks are observed.

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: decomposed stellar kinematics of galaxy bulges and disks [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT We investigate the stellar kinematics of the bulge and disk components in 826 galaxies with a wide range of morphology from the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral-field spectroscopy Galaxy Survey. The spatially resolved rotation velocity (V) and velocity dispersion (σ) of bulge and disk components have been simultaneously ...

The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: bulge-disc decomposition of 10 095 nearby galaxies
, 2006 We have modelled the light distribution in 10 095 galaxies from the Millennium Galaxy Catalogue (MGC), providing publicly available structural catalogues for a large, representative sample of galaxies in the local Universe.

The Intrinsic Shape of Galaxy Bulges [PDF]
, 2016 The knowledge of the intrinsic three-dimensional (3D) structure of galaxy components provides crucial information about the physical processes driving their formation and evolution. In this paper I discuss the main developments and results in the quest to better understand the 3D shape of galaxy bulges.

Bulge Globular Clusters in Spiral Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2001 There is now strong evidence that the metal-rich globular clusters (GCs) near the center of our Galaxy are associated with the Galactic bulge rather than the disk as previously thought. Here we extend the concept of bulge GCs to the GC systems of nearby spiral galaxies.

Galaxy bulges at mid- and high-redshift [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007 AbstractBulges are a major galaxy component in the nearby universe, and are one of the primary features that differentiates and defines galaxies. The origin of bulges can be directly probed in part by examining distant galaxies to search for high redshift bulges, and to study the properties of bulges in formation.

A SAURON look at galaxy bulges
Astronomische Nachrichten, 2004 AbstractKinematic and population studies show that bulges are generally rotationally flattened systems similar to lowluminosity ellipticals. However, observations with state‐of‐the‐art integral field spectrographs, such as SAURON, indicate that the situation is much more complex, and allow us to investigate phenomena such as triaxiality, kinematic ...

Unveiling the boxy bulge and bar of the Andromeda spiral galaxy [PDF]
, 2006 Suibmitted to Astrophysical Journal LettersA new, 2.8 deg^2 J,H,K_s infrared survey from the 2MASS 6x program across the extent of the optical disk of the Andromeda (M31) galaxy provides a clear view of the M31 center almost completely unfettered by dust

Abundance jump in the inner bulges of galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1993 The metallicity difference of about an order between the kinematically decoupled nuclei and the surrounding bulges is found in 3 spiral galaxies possessing an axisymmetric potential in their centres.
