Description
I will review methods for solving time-dependent radiation transfer in general relativistic spacetimes and described a new method for treating radiation transfer in a five or six dimensional finite volume approach. I will also describe our efforts to apply direct transfer solutions to simulations of black hole accretion and the driving of accretion disk winds via radiation pressure.
