SMASH is a relativistic hadronic transport approach including all well-established hadrons up to a mass of ~ 2 GeV as degrees of freedom. Electromagnetic emission is treated perturbatively. It constitutes an effective solution of the relativistic Boltzmann equation with binary interactions. Most interactions proceed via resonance excitation and decay at lower energies or string excitation and fragmentation at higher energies. The following applications have been well tested:
