In this work we present dipole scattering amplitudes, including the dependence on the impact-parameter, for a variety of nuclear targets of interest for the electron-ion colliders (EICs) being currently designed. These amplitudes are obtained by numerically solving the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation with the collinearly improved kernel. Two different cases are studied: initial conditions representing the nucleus under consideration and the solutions based on an initial condition representing a proton complemented by a Glauber-Gribov prescription to obtain dipole-nucleus amplitudes. We find that the energy evolution of these two approaches differ. We use the obtained dipole scattering amplitudes to predict ($i$) nuclear structure functions that can be measured in deep-inelastic scattering at EICs and ($ii$) nuclear suppression factors that reveal the energy evolution of shadowing for the different cases we studied. We compare our predictions with the available data.

We solved the impact-parameter dependent Balitsky-Kovchegov equation with the recently proposed collinearly imporved kernel. We find that the solutions do not present the Coulomb tails that have affected previous studies. We also show that once choos
ing an adequate initial condition it is possible to obtain a reasonable description of HERA data on the structure function of the proton, as well as on the cross section for the exclusive production of a $mathrm{J/}psi$ vector meson off proton targets. As a further application of the solutions, we computed the impact-parameter dependent Weiszacker-Williams gluon distribution.
The solution to the impact-parameter dependent Balitsky-Kovchegov equation with the collinearly improved kernel is studied in detail. The solution does not present the phenomenon of Coulomb tails at large impact parameters that have affected previous
studies. The origin of this behaviour is explored numerically. It is found to be linked to the fact that this kernel suppresses large daughter dipoles. Solutions based on a physics motivated form of the initial condition are used to compute predictions for structure functions of the proton and the exclusive photo- and electroproduction of vector mesons. A reasonable agreement is found when comparing to HERA and LHC data.
The first measurements of Delta- xF3 are higher than current theoretical predictions. We investigate the sensitivity of these theoretical predictions upon a variety of factors including: renormalization scheme and scale, quark mass effects, higher twist, isospin violation, and PDF uncertainties.
While current nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) from global fits to experimental data are spatially homogeneous, many experimental observables in nucleus-nucleus collisions are presented in terms of centrality cuts. These cuts can be rela
ted to impact parameter using the Glauber theory and it is thus usual in the description of such observables to convolute an assumed impact parameter distribution with the homogeneous nPDFs. In this study we use the Gribov theory of nuclear shadowing supplemented with information from diffraction to model the impact parameter distributions of nuclear shadowing ratio in the small-$x$ region. The modeled distributions are applied to the description of the centrality dependence of observables in deuteron-gold (d+Au) collisions at $sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200$ AGeV.
{In this paper we propose a new impact-parameter dependent CGC/saturation model. We introduce two new features in the model that make it consistent with what we know theoretically about the deep inelastic scattering. They are: the use of the exact fo
rm of the solution to the non-linear (BK) equation, whereas in all previous attempts only the form of $r^2Q^2_s$ dependence, has been taken into account; and the large impact parameter dependence, through the $b$-dependence of the saturation momentum which reproduce the correct behaviour of the amplitude at large impact parameters $b$ ($A propto expLb - mu bRb$) as well as at large momentum transferred $Q_T$ ($A $ decreases as a power of $Q_T$ as it follows from perturbative QCD). These improvement compared to all previous attempts to build such models, allows us to claim, that the experimental data are in accord with the prediction of CGC/saturation approach while previously, based on similar models, we could only conclude that the DIS data, perhaps, can be described by introducing the shadowing corrections at small photon virtualities.
