Abstract

We show that gluon saturation gives rise to a strong modification of the scaling in both the nuclear mass number A and the virtuality Q² of the vector meson production cross-section in exclusive deep-inelastic scattering off nuclei. We present qualitative analytic expressions for how the scaling exponents are modified as well as quantitative predictions that can be tested at an Electron–Ion Collider.
