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 scarce. This is in sharp contrast to the free proton’s structure which has been probed in Deep
Inelastic Scattering (DIS) measurements down to x ∼ 10−5 at perturbative resolution scales. The
construction of an electron-ion collider (EIC) with a possibility to operate with a wide variety of nuclei,
will allow one to explore the low-x region in much greater detail. In the present paper we simulate the
extraction of the nuclear structure functions from measurements of inclusive and charm reduced cross
sections at an EIC. The potential constraints are studied by analyzing simulated data directly in a next-toleading
order global fit of nuclear Parton Distribution Functions based on the recent EPPS16 analysis. A
special emphasis is placed on studying the impact an EIC would have on extracting the nuclear gluon
parton distribution function, the partonic component most prone to nonlinear effects at low Q2
. In
comparison to the current knowledge, we find that the gluon parton distribution function can be measured
at an EIC with significantly reduced uncertainties.

Multigluon Correlations and Evidence of Saturation from Dijet Measurements at an Electron-Ion Collider
Mäntysaari, Heikki; Mueller, Niklas; Salazar, Farid; Schenke, Björn (American Physical Society, 2020)We study inclusive and diffractive dijet production in electron-proton and electron-nucleus collisions within the color glass condensate effective field theory. We compute dijet cross sections differentially in both mean ... -
Accessing the gluonic structure of light nuclei at a future electron-ion collider
Mäntysaari, Heikki; Schenke, Björn (American Physical Society, 2020)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 ... -

Azimuthal correlations in diffractive scattering at the Electron-Ion Collider
Dumitru, Adrian; Mäntysaari, Heikki; Paatelainen, Risto; Kaushik, Roy, Salazar, Farid; Schenke, Björn (Stichting SciPost, 2022)We calculate azimuthal correlations between the exclusively produced vector meson and the scattered electron in Deep Inelastic Scattering processes at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). We identify "kinematical" and ... -
The importance of kinematic twists and genuine saturation effects in dijet production at the Electron-Ion Collider
Boussarie, Renaud; Mäntysaari, Heikki; Salazar, Farid; Schenke, Björn (Springer, 2021)We compute the differential yield for quark anti-quark dijet production in high-energy electron-proton and electron-nucleus collisions at small x as a function of the relative momentum P⊥ and momentum imbalance k⊥ of the ...
