In this brief article we summarize the derivation of the Sivers function of a heavy nucleus, which we obtain by generalizing the quasi-classical McLerran-Venugopalan model to incorporate the role of spin and orbital angular momentum. In doing so we obtain a new channel which is capable of generating the Sivers function of the nucleus from the orbital motion of its nucleons. An essential role is played in this channel by the multiple rescatterings on spectator nucleons which screen the distribution function during the initial- or final-state interactions. The combination of orbital angular momentum together with multiple rescattering yields a new interpretation of the sign flip relation between the Sivers function measured in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering and the Drell-Yan process.

We present a new event generator based on the three-fluid hydrodynamics (3FH) approach, followed by a particlization at the hydrodynamic decoupling surface and a subsequent UrQMD afterburner stage based on the microscopic UrQMD transport model that accounts for hadronic final state interactions. First results for Au+Au collisions are presented. The following topics are addressed: the directed flow, transversemass spectra, as well as rapidity distributions of protons, pions and kaons for two model equations of state, one with a first-order phase transition, the other with a crossover transition. Preliminary results on the femtoscopy are also discussed.We analyze the accuracy of reproduction of the 3FH results by the new event generator and the effect of the subsequent UrQMD afterburner stage.
