Using the ingredients from those calculations we calculate exclusive electroproduction of charmonia off nuclei. Here new effects become important, (i) color filtering of the c-cbar pair on its trajectory through nuclear matter, (ii) dependence on the finite lifetime of the c-cbar fluctuation (coherence length) and (iii) gluon shadowing in a nucleus compared to the one in a nucleon. Total coherent and incoherent cross sections for C, Cu and Pb as functions of s and Q^2 are presented together with some differential cross sections. The results can be tested with future electron-nucleus colliders or in peripheral collisions of ultrarelativistic heavy ions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2002-02-26T16:07:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "25.30.-c", "13.60.Le", "13.85.Lg" ], "keywords": [ "electroproduction", "ep collisions employing realistic charmonia", "collisions employing realistic charmonia wave", "employing realistic charmonia wave functions", "elastic charmonium production" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
