%0 Journal Article %T Instabilities of Advection-Dominated Accretion Flows %A Xingming Chen %J Physics %D 1996 %I arXiv %X Accretion disk instabilities are briefly reviewed. Some details are given to the short-wavelength thermal instabilities and the convective instabilities. Time-dependent calculations of two-dimensional advection-dominated accretion flows are presented. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/9601116v1
