Magnetized, fully ionized plasmas accreting onto black holes are believed to power several classes of astronomical sources, including the active galactic nuclei and, possibly, the gamma-ray bursts. These accretion flows combine several interesting pieces of physics, including turbulence, relativistically strong electromagnetic fields, general relativity, and dynamically important radiation pressure. I will discuss the new understanding of accretion flow dynamics that is now emerging from analytic and numerical studies.
