Radial structure of outer regions of α-disks (Shakura & Sunyaev 1973) is investigated in a more sophisticated way than in Collin-Souffrin & Dumont (1990). The vertically averaged equations for the disk structure hold but some of them are reconsidered : the equation of state (atoms, ions and molecules) with a the rigourous treatment of opacities is introduced. The radiative flux is treated as in Hubeny (1990), and finally a rigourous treatment of the self-gravitaty is included.
