Abstract
We model two temperature viscous accretion flows in the sub-Keplerian, optically thin, regime around rotating black holes including important radiation effects self-consistently. The model successfully explains observed luminosities from ultra-luminous to under-luminous sources and predicts the spin parameter of black holes.
