Accretion instability models for dwarf novae and X-ray transientsSteady state and time dependent calculations of a model for accretion instability are presented, in which matter accumulates in a cold torus and then undergoes a thermal instability causing the matter to heat and flow down onto the central star. The model is compared to the observations of dwarf novae and certain examples of both hard and soft X-ray transients.
