Description

We discuss the physics case related to the studies of ultra-peripheral $p$+(H,$^3$He) and Pb+(H,$^3$He) collisions in the fixed-target mode at the LHC. In particular, we show how one can measure the gluon GPD $E_g(x,\xi)$ in exclusive $J/\psi$ photoproduction with a transversely polarised hydrogen target.
