Resumen
We present the analysis of infrared HST and Spitzer data for a sample of 13 FRII powerful radio galaxies at 0.03 < z < 0.11 that are optically classified as narrow-line radio galaxies (NLRG). Under the context of the unified schemes of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), the direct view of the AGN in NLRG is impeded by a parsec- scale toroidal structure when this is viewed edge-on (Barthel 1989, Antonucci 1993). Our high resolution infrared observations provide new information about the optical extinction, orientation, and direct AGN detection of the inner kpc-scale region of the AGN.
