Abstract
Understanding the gluonic structure in nuclei is one of the most important goals in modern nuclear physics, for which J/ψ photoproduction is suggested as a powerful tool to probe the gluon density distribution. The experimental investigation of the photoproduction process is conventionally studied in ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions, and has recently been extended to hadronic collisions. However, theoretical efforts in hadronic heavy-ion collisions are still lacking in the literature. In this paper, we build up a phenomenological framework to calculate the differential momentum transfer spectra for J/ψ photoproduction in hadronic heavy-ion collisions based on a vector meson dominance model. For the first time, we include the effect of internal photon radiation in the calculations, and we find that the results with internal photon radiation could describe the experimental measurements from STAR very well.
