Mon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc. 337 (2002) 1329 We present a model of an outburst of the soft X-ray transient A0620-003. A two-dimensional time-dependent smoothed particle hydrodynamics scheme is used to simulate the evolution of the accretion disc through a complete outburst. The scheme includes the full t...
