| Abstract: |
The theory of black hole accretion disks is one of the most
important basic theories and advanced topics in astrophysics. There
are four known models of black hole accretion disks: standard thin
disk (SSD), Shapiro-Lightman-Eardley (SLE) disk, optically thick
advection dominated accretion flows (ADAF) theory (slim disk) and
optically thin ADAF theory. During the past decades, they have made
great contributions to the development of astrophysics. Despite
their great successes in both theory and application, there are
still many open questions. First of all, this paper will briefly
introduce these four models. Then it will discuss several
limitations of these models and review present possible solutions to
address these problems. Our review work will contribute to further
research of black hole accretion disks to a certain extent. |
