Scientific paper

The spectral energy distribution of 3C galaxies was constructed by compiling measurements in optical, near IR, far-IR and at mm bands for galaxies detected in our ISOCAM survey. Exploiting the models discussed by Siebenmorgen et al. (2002, hereafter SFK), we argue that for a large fraction of the detected galaxies, hot dust is the most likely explanation for the mid-infrared emission. Where this is the case, we have derived the total infrared luminosities, dust mass and limits on the dust temperatures. Taking into account selection biases in our sample, we discuss the frequency and properties of hot dust in radio galaxies at high redshift.
