| Abstract: |
We measured infrared nuclear luminosities of 100 3CR radio galaxies with
z<0.3 from HST NICMOS 2 observations. We modeled and subtracted the infrared
galaxy light to isolate and to estimate the nuclear emission. We separated the
objects into FR I and FR II and into LEG (low-excitation galaxies), HEG
(high-excitation galaxies) and BLO (broad-lined objects) with optical
spectra. We performed a multi-wavelength analysis of the nuclei of the sample
in order to understand the origin of the near infrared emission for each class
of AGN. |
