Even though the Hubble classification scheme is the most widely used
system, there are several other schemes for classifying galaxies. De
Vaucouleurs' T system, Elmergeen's classification of spiral arms,
Morgan's classification system and Van den Bergh's classification of
galaxies are few of them. These systems are described in detail
by Van den Bergh (1998). This project made use of the Hubble
classification system.
