The influence of radiation pressure on the structure of accretion disk is considered when the total luminosity L approaches the Eddington limit L/sub c/. The motion of particles in the disk radiation field and gravitational field of a nonrotating black hole was investigated. It is shown that the disk accretion is destroyed when L approximately equals (0.6 + 1.0)L/sub c/. Matter outflow from the central parts of the disk to infinity then sets in. It is concluded that the luminosity cannot significantly exceed the Eddington limit. It is shown that for L greater than or approximately equal to 0.1 L/sub c/ the plasma in upper layers of the central region of the disk is heated up to temperatures approximately 10/sup 9/ K, and the disk becomes thicker as compared with the standard theory. The radiative force can generate magnetic fields B approximately 100 Gs. Convection is the main energy transfer mechanism along Z-coordinate in the central parts of the disk. The convection generates an acoustic flux which dissipates in the upper, optically thin layers of the disk and heats them. The comptonization of soft photons going from lower layers to the hot upper layers and variable accretion rate may explainmore » the spectrum and variations of X-ray emission of the Cyg X-1.« less
