Intrinsic Shape of Bulges in Disk Galaxies
Evidences suggesting that bulges of non-barred disk galaxies could be triaxial structures come from different aspects. From the photometry, the twist of the inner isophotes and the misaligment between the disk and the bulge major axis position angle are not possible under the hypothesis of symmetry for both components. From the kinematics, rotation
