Abstract
This is a basic introduction to the physics of compact objects in the context of High Time Resolution Astrophysics (HTRA). The main mechanisms of energy release and the properties of relevant radiation processes are briefly reviewed. As a specific example, the top models for the multi-wavelength variability of accreting black holes are unveiled.
