We examine in detail several aspects of the physics of accretion disks ofpossible relevance to the outburst mechanism of the black hole X-raytransients. We adopt the one dimensional, time dependent model described indetail by Cannizzo, Chen, & Livio with parameters appropriate for a system suchas A0620-00. We investigate (1) the effect of the grid spacing, utilizing alogarithmic radial spacing $\Delta r\propto r$ in addition to the spacing$\Delta r\propto \sqrt{r}$, (2) the dependence of the local flow speed of gaswithin the hot part of the disk on radius and time during the time of thecooling wave propagation, (3) the shape of the outburst light curve as afunction of the triggering location for the instability, (4) the long termlight curves of outbursts taken from trials in which complete cycles ofquiescence and outburst are followed, both with and without including theeffect of evaporation or removal of matter from the inner edge of the disk, and(5) the strength of the self-irradiation of the outer parts of the disk by theX-rays from the inner disk.Comment: 43 pages, 14 figure
