Accretion Disk Models of Luminous Black Holes

Abstract

Models of X-ray production in black-hole sources are reviewed and compared with recent observations. Possible diagnostics of the hot-disk and disk-corona models are discussed in the light of spectral and temporal data. A new model of a small-scale inviscid accretion disk is presented.
