Abstract
In this Rapid Communication we update our predictions for the photoproduction of vector mesons in coherent and collisions at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies using the color dipole approach and the Color Glass Condensate formalism. In particular, we present our predictions for the first run of the LHC at half energy and for the rapidity dependence of the ratio between the and cross sections at RHIC energies.
