Structural properties of disk galaxies. I. The intrinsic equatorial ellipticity of bulges
Context: A variety of formation scenarios have been proposed to explain the diversity of properties observed in bulges. Studying their intrinsic shape can help...

Structural properties of disk galaxies. II. Intrinsic shape of bulges
Context. Knowledge of the intrinsic shapes of galaxy components provides crucial information when constraining phenomena driving their formation and evolution...
Structure and dynamics of galaxies with a low surface-brightness disc - I. The stellar and ionized-gas kinematics
Photometry and long-slit spectroscopy are presented for a sample of six galaxies with a low surface-brightness stellar disc and a bulge. The characterizing...
Structure and dynamics of galaxies with a low surface-brightness disc - II. Stellar populations of bulges
We present the radial profiles of the Hβ, Mg and Fe line-strength indices for a sample of eight spiral galaxies with a low-surface-brightness stellar disc and a...
Structure and star formation in disc galaxies - I. Sample selection and near-infrared imaging
We present near-infrared imaging of a sample of 57 relatively large, northern spiral galaxies with low inclination. After describing the selection criteria and...
Structure and star formation in disk galaxies. II. Optical imaging
We present optical observations of a sample of 57 spiral galaxies and describe the procedures followed to reduce the data. We have obtained images in the...
Structure and star formation in disk galaxies. III. Nuclear and circumnuclear Hα emission
From Hα images of a carefully selected sample of 57 relatively large, Northern spiral galaxies with low inclination, we study the distribution of the Hα...
