In a previous publication, we have presented model for the photoproduction of $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ vector mesons off protons, where proton structure in impact-parameter plane is described by an energy-dependent hot-spot profile.

The coherent photonuclear production of a $\mathrm{J/}\psi$ vector meson at the LHC has been computed using two different sets solutions impact-parameter dependent Balitsky-Kovchegov equation. nuclear dipole scattering amplitudes are obtained either from ($i$) for this process off proton targets coupled with Glauber-Gribov prescription, or ($ii$) an initial condition representing nucleus. These approaches predict cross sections, which compared existing data ultra-peripheral collisions LHC....
