摘要
We show that a recently discovered spiral-induced radial mass accretion process could account for the formation of the Galactic Bulge in a Hubble time. This process is thus expected to be important in the formation of bulges in spiral galaxies, and in the secular evolution of galaxies along the Hubble sequence from late to earlier types.
