Description
Coherent vector meson (VM) production provides insights into the gluon structure functions of nuclei and is sensitive to gluon saturation effects. Various works have been dedicated to studying coherent VM production at various ranges of photon virtuality (Q2). The main challenge in reconstructing diffractive observables (like the momentum transfer) arises in accurately reconstructing the energy and the momentum of the scattering electrons, particularly as the virtuality of the photon increases.
In this presentation, we will present a feasibility study of observing coherent VM production at low values of Q2, focusing on the reconstruction of event kinematics at these scales.
