Descripción
We present results on the study of 24 bulges of Sa galaxies observed
with the integral-field unit SAURON at the William Herschel Telescope.
Here we review some of the main features observed in our maps in terms
of their kinematics and stellar populations, and unveil a rather complex
picture in which the centers of spiral galaxies are made of several
components: one (or more) thin, disclike component, often containing
recent star formation, and another, elliptical-like component,
consisting of old stars and rotating more slowly, dominating the light
above the plane.
