In this work we investigate the photoproduction of radially excited vector mesons off nuclei in heavy ion relativistic collisions. In particular, we analyze the exclusive photoproduction of psi(2S) off nuclei, evaluating the coherent and the incoherent contributions to that process. The theoretical framework used in the present analysis is the light-cone dipole formalism and predictions are done for PbPb collisions at the CERN-LHC energy of 2.76 TeV. The theoretical uncertainties are analyzed and comparison is also done to the recent ALICE Collaboration data for the psi(1S) state photoproduction.

To remedy this, an additional suppression factor of $R_g < 1$, which aims to take into account large gluon shadowing, was also included in the analysis [ref] , which in our opinion constitutes possible double counting.

On the theoretical front, the photon production of vector mesons have been studied through various approaches, including perturbative quantum chromodynamics(pQCD), $k_T$-factorization and color dipole model(CDM) [ref] , in this work, we use the dipole model to predict the vector mesons production in PbPb ultraperipheral collisions at $√(s_NN)$=2.76TeV, the goal of this work is to update the prediction of vector mesons with new fit of IP-Sat model and several wave function models.

Along these line, the authors of Ref. [ref] extract the nuclear suppression factor, $S(x≈10^-3)=0.61 ±0.064$, using the ALICE data on coherent $ψ(1S)$ and considering the nuclear gluon shadowing predicted by nuclear pdf's and by leading twist nuclear shadowing.
