Classification of GC has a rich history, since it was first considered by Shapley and Sawyer [1] over 90 years ago. After them, a number of authors [2-8] tried to classify GC in various ways, but however, before our work no one was able to solve this problem to the desired level. We first studied the physical characteristics of the GC of our Galaxy by constructing diagrams of the relationship between these characteristics. Next, we decided to answer the question of whether it …
