23. Constraints on the physics of accretion/jet production are crucial for our understanding of feedback “Low-luminosity AGN” are most likely dominated by kinetic energy as a sink of energy Physically motivated scaling L kin ~ L core,5GHz 0.7 The redshift evolution of SMBH mass, accretion rate and kinetic energy output function can be determined from the joint evolution of X-ray and Radio AGN luminosity functions using the mass-L X -L R relationship The K.E. feedback from LLAGN jets at late times starts dominating high mass objects first and then objects of progressively lower mass (downsizing of feedback) The occurrence of the so-called “radio mode” of AGN feedback is in fact only determined by accretion physics Conclusions

A0620-00 (V616 Mon) In 30 years, IR/Optical/UV campaign have revealed system parameters to a high level of accuracy: D = 1.2 ± 0.4 Kpc M = 11.0 ± 1.9 M ๏ 0.7 M ๏ K3-K4V companion in a 7.75 hr orbit Optical accretion disc spectra and total energy released in outburst have been used to estimate the outer disc accretion rate of ~1-3 × 10 -10 M ๏ /yr (about 5 orders of mag. larger than that onto BH if accretion efficient; McClintock et al. 1995; Meyer-Hofmeister & Meyer 1999 )
