The production mechanism of radio jets in AGN and quasar grand unification
Recent advances in estimating black hole masses for AGN show that radio luminosity is dependent on black hole mass and accretion rate. In this paper we outline a possible scheme for unifying radio-quiet and radio-loud AGN. We take the ``optimistic'' view that the mass and spin of the central black hole, the accretion rate onto it, plus orientation and a weak environmental dependence, fully determine the observed properties of AGN.
