Scientific paper

A fundamental component of the Active Galactic Nuclei paradigm is an accretion disk. Yet, the nature of this accretion disk is not well understood. The optically thick, geometrically thin accretion disk has often been discussed in the literature. Here we discuss the key predictions of this model and summarize all the observational data connected with these predictions. Although the standard disk model is attractive for its theoretical simplicity, many of the key predictions from this model are in disagreement with observations.
