In this paper we analyze nuclear medium effects on DVCS amplitudes in the $\Bx$ range of $0.1-0.0001$ for a large range of $Q^2$ and four different nuclei. We use our nucleon GPD model capable of describing all currently available DVCS data…
The overlap of the nucleons in nuclei plays an important role in understanding the nuclear dependence of deep inelastic scattering data. It is shown that the nuclear modification of the higher twist scale can be essentially determined by…
We investigate the in-medium properties of pseudoscalar and vector mesons with the light-light and heavy-light quarks in a light-front quark model, using the in-medium quark properties computed by the quark-meson coupling model. Both models…
We explain the early onset of shadowing in nuclear photoabsorption within a multiple scattering approach and discuss its relation to in-medium modifications of the rho^0.
We review a semi-microscopic model of nuclear parton distributions, which takes into account a number of nuclear effects including Fermi motion and nuclear binding, nuclear meson-exchange currents and off-shell corrections to bound nucleon…
We argue that current data on nuclear shadowing confirm expectations of the color singlet models of nuclear shadowing. We demonstrate that unitarity constrains require nuclear shadowing for gluons to be very significant already for $x \le…
Compact and well defined formulae for the shadow of the virtual photon interacting with a large nucleus at small $x_{Bj}$ are given in the QCD dipole picture. Two classes of contributions are considered: (a) quasi-elastic interaction of the…

We consider Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) on nucleons and nuclei in the framework of generalized vector meson dominance (GVMD) model. We demonstrate that the GVMD model provides a good description of the HERA data on the…
A new scaling variable is introduced in terms of which nuclear shadowing in deep-inelastic scattering is universal, i.e. independent of $A$, $Q^2$ and $x$. This variable can be interpreted as a measure of the number of gluons probed by the…
We propose new Transverse Momentum Dependent (TMD) gluon densities in nuclei. Our method is based on a combination of the color dipole scattering formalism, within which we interpret the nuclear deep inelastic structure functions…
A model for the description of photonuclear reactions in the multi-GeV range is described that combines the coherent initial state interactions (shadowing) of the incoming photon with an incoherent coupled channel description of final state…
We investigate the different perturbative QCD-based models for nuclear shadowing of gluons. We show that in the kinematic region appropriate to RHIC experiment, all models give similar estimates for the magnitude of gluon shadowing. At…
We summarize the current theoretical and experimental status of the spectral changes of vector mesons ($\rho$, $\omega$, $\phi$) in nuclear medium. Various approaches including QCD sum rules, effective theory of hadrons and bag models show…
We study nuclear shadowing at small Bjorken x < 0.01 in the color dipole approach. Such a light-cone quantum-chromodynamics formalism based on the Green function technique incorporates naturally color transparency and coherence length…
We review predictions of the theory of leading twist nuclear shadowing for inclusive unpolarized and polarized deuteron structure functions F_2^D, g_1^D and b_1^D and for the tagged deuteron structure function F_2^D(x,Q^2,\vec{p}). We…
Theoretical description of the spin dependent structure function g_1(x,Q^2) in the region of low values of x and Q^2 is presented. It contains the Vector Meson Dominance contribution and the QCD improved parton model suitably extended to…

The $Q^2$ dependence of the ratios of the cross sections of deep inelastic lepton--nucleus scattering is studied in the framework of leading twist, lowest order perturbative QCD. The $\log Q^2$ slope of the ratio $F_2^{\rm Sn}/F_2^{\rm C}$…
We consider the nuclear shadowing in deep-inelastic scattering corresponding to kinematic regions accessible by future experiments at electron-ion colliders. The gluon distribution at small $x$ is obtained using an improved dipole model…
