Abstract

The results of CCD photometry of the three low-luminosity radio galaxies which contain jets at the kpc scale, B2 0836+29, B2 2116+26, and B2 2236+35, are presented and discussed. The photometric properties of the galaxies are studied by analyzing the radial variations of surface brightness, ellipticity, major axis position angle, and isophote center. The deviations of the isophotes from perfect elliptical contours are characterized. The morphological properties of the galaxies are discussed in terms of their local environment and radio emission
