The Workshop is designed to review in depth what has been achieved in the research on accretion on all scales, from galactic binaries to intermediate mass black holes to super-massive AGN, and discuss possible future directions. The main goal of the proposed ISSI Workshop is to discuss the state of the art of the research on black hole accretion.
