| description | Pseudobulges form from unstable disks, while classical bulges form in violent episodes of star formation when a merger sweeps cold gas to a galactic centre. It seems unlikely that smashed disks contribute much to classical bulges. During mergers central black holes make cusps shallower and inflate kinematically decoupled cores. The abundance of galaxies with no detected classical bulge can perhaps be understood if galaxies exchange gas with the IGM more freely than is often supposed. © 2008 International Astronomical Union. |
