Scientific paper

We describe a model of dust scattering and polarization of anisotropic nuclear radiation in the UV-optical range, which we have developed having in mind the AGN unification scheme. The model is applied to spectrophotometric and spectropolarimetric data of radio galaxies with the aim of understanding the dust properties, the scattering geometry and the stellar ages, which are left as free parameters. The goal is to confirm and develop the unified scheme for radio loud AGN and to get clues on the evolution of dust and stars in active galaxies.
