Scientific paper

Observed triplets of galaxies which are assumed to be isolated bound physical systems are scattered more or less randomly over the space of all possible geometical configurations, while numerical simulations and dynamical considerations suggest that one should rather expect an excess of hierarchical structures. We show that this controversy may have important physical grounds and cannot be related to projection effects. Possible explanations may involve effective merging of galaxies at their close passing or the presence of smoothly distributed dark matter in the systems.
