We present , a numerical code to simulate the evolution of matter created in heavy-ion collisions. is based on Black Hole Accretion Code (), which has been designed model astrophysical processes through solution equations general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics. Like mother code, uses adaptive mesh refinement, allows for dynamic adjustment resolution regions computational domain where particularly high accuracy needed. here discuss number applications Au-Au collisions at BNL Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider energies and show that able reproduce results other simulations these scenarios, but with much higher accuracy.
