We determine the variation with radius of the physical parameters (scale height, central density, and central temperature) of a stationary self-gravitating, magnetized accretion disk at radii larger than 102 R G . Our results are relevant in the context of line and continuum emission from the outer region of the disk. We have also studied the influence of self-gravitation and magnetic fields over typical radii, and have shown that the value of R BB is larger than that computed by Collin- Souffrin & Dumont by a factor of about 4.7.
