Description

The measurement of coherent diffractive Vector-Meson (VM) production sheds light on the internal structure of nuclei - probing the gluon density and saturation phenomena. However, the incoherent VM photoprduction serves as a substantial background to these measurements. In my talk, I will discuss these challenges, emphasizing the parallels as they pertain to both the LHC and EIC.
