Scientific paper

One of the most fundamental issues of modern astronomy is the question of the origin and early evolution of galaxies. The deeper we penetrate into the past history of the universe, the more important these questions seem to be. In particular, we may ask why the galaxies show up in so many different shapes and if the morphology of a galaxy may be substantially altered during the evolution of the universe. In this context, the galaxies which have a peculiar, i. e. non-Hubble, morphology, have attracted special attention. Among these objects, we find the interacting galaxies, which constitute approximately 5% of all galaxies.
