Secular Evolution of Bulges Induced by Satellite Accretion
Satellite accretion events have been invoked for mimicking the internal secular evolutionary processes of bulge growth tep{Kormendy04}. In order to investigate this question, we perform N-body models of the accretion of satellites onto disk galaxies. A scaling between the primary and the satellite based on the Tully-Fisher relation ensures that the
