This report describes the physics case, the resulting detector requirements, and the evolving
detector concepts for the experimental program at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The EIC …

Ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) of heavy ions and protons are the energy frontier for
electromagnetic interactions. Both photonuclear and two-photon collisions are studied at …

A bstract Exclusive production of transversely polarized heavy vector mesons in deep
inelastic scattering at high energy is calculated at next-to-leading order accuracy in the …

Prospects for quarkonium-production studies accessible during the upcoming high-
luminosity phases of the CERN Large Hadron Collider operation after 2021 are reviewed …

The future opportunities for high-density QCD studies with ion and proton beams at the LHC
are presented. Four major scientific goals are identified: the characterisation of the …

We calculate exclusive production of a longitudinally polarized heavy vector meson at next-
to-leading order in the dipole picture. The large quark mass allows us to separately include …

Understanding how quarks and gluons behave in the nuclear environment is an important
focus of modern nuclear physics. Recent measurements have provided an improved …

We show that when saturation effects are included one obtains a good description of the
exclusive J/ψ production spectra in ultraperipheral lead-lead collisions as recently …

In this work, the cross section of the reaction γ p→ V (J/ψ, ψ (2 S)) p from the production
threshold to medium energy is studied and systematically analyzed within two gluon …

Using Bayesian inference, we determine probabilistic constraints on the parameters
describing the fluctuating structure of protons at high energy. We employ the color glass …
