We show how exclusive vector meson production off light ions can be used to probe the spatial distribution of small-x gluons in the deuteron and 3He wave functions. In particular, we demonstrate how short-range repulsive nucleon-nucleon interactions affect the predicted coherent J/Ψ production spectra. Fluctuations of the nucleon substructure are shown to have a significant effect on the incoherent cross section above |t|≳0.2GeV2. By explicitly performing the Jalilian-Marian–Iancu–McLerran–Weigert–Leonidov–Kovner (JIMWLK) evolution, we predict the x dependence of coherent and incoherent cross sections in the electron-ion collider energy range. In addition to the increase of the average size of the nucleus with decreasing x, both the growth of the nucleons and subnucleonic hot spots are visible in the cross sections. The decreasing length scale of color charge fluctuations with decreasing x is also present, but may not be observable for |t|<1GeV2, if subnucleonic spatial fluctuations are present.

A U.S.-based Electron-Ion Collider
Guzey, Vadim (Institute of Physics, 2019)An Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) in USA is currently discussed as a next-generation facility for high-energy nuclear physics. The main goal of the EIC is to study fundamental questions of Quantum Chromodynamics, which include ... -
Inclusive and Diffractive Dijet Photoproduction at the Electron–Ion Collider in NLO QCD
Guzey, V.; Klasen, M. (Jagiellonian University, 2023)In the framework of collinear factorization and next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD, we make predictions for inclusive and diffrac tive dijet photoproduction in electron–proton and electron–nucleus scat tering in ... -
Nuclear structure functions at a future electron-ion collider
Aschenauer, E. C.; Fazio, S.; Lamont, M. A. C.; Paukkunen, Hannu; Zurita, P. (American Physical Society, 2017)The quantitative knowledge of heavy nuclei’s partonic structure is currently limited to rather large values of momentum fraction x—robust experimental constraints below x ∼ 10−2 at low resolution scale Q2 are particularly ... -
Multiscale Imaging of Nuclear Deformation at the Electron-Ion Collider
Mäntysaari, Heikki; Schenke, Björn; Shen, Chun; Zhao, Wenbin (American Physical Society (APS), 2023)We show within the color glass condensate framework that exclusive vector meson production at high energy is very sensitive to the geometric deformation of the target nucleus at multiple length scales. We show that different ... -
Heavy quarks in polarised deep-inelastic scattering at the electron-ion collider
Hekhorn, Felix; Magni, Giacomo; Nocera, Emanuele R.; Rabemananjara, Tanjona R.; Rojo, Juan; Schaus, Adrianne; Stegeman, Roy (Springer, 2024)We extend the FONLL general-mass variableflavour-number scheme to the case of longitudinally polarised DIS structure functions, accounting for perturbative corrections up to O α2 s . We quantify the impact of charm quark ...
