On the Nature of Angular Momentum Transport in Nonradiative Accretion Flows
The principles underlying a proposed class of black hole accretion models are examined. The flows are generally referred to as ``convection-dominated,'' and are characterized by inward transport of angular momentum by thermal convection and outward viscous transport, vanishing mass accreti...
