Abstract
We discuss how disk models may limit the scope of identifying astrophysical black holes. We show that the standard Keplerian thin disk model, the thick disk model, slim disks, ADAFs etc. are fundamentally limited. We present the most complete solution to date called the advective accretion disk and discuss how it has the scope to address every observational aspects of a black hole. Though the magnetic field is not fully self-consistently taken care of yet, the details with which the present model can handle various issues successfully are astounding. We present some of the examples.
