Description

In this talk, I plan to discuss the exploration of the gluon saturation
phenomenon in pA collisions and at the future EIC. The proposed
cutting-edge EIC can lead us to answers to many fundamental questions
about the physical role and 3D image of gluons in nucleons and nuclei
with unprecedented precision, and also has the potential to discover a
form of ultra-dense gluonic matter. Complementary measurements in pA
collisions and at the EIC can help us measure various small-x gluon
distributions and study the onset of gluon saturation. I will also
briefly discuss the recent progress including the measurement of the
Wigner gluon distribution at low-x.
