Description
Inspired by the evidence of the EMC effect, indicating the structure functions of nuclei to that in the deuteron are modified, it is also expected that the partonic structure of hadrons is modified in the nuclear medium or finite nuclei. Besides the valence quark and sea quark distributions, the medium modification of the gluon distributions in nuclear medium and finite nuclei, which is one of the main physics goals of the electron-ion collider (EIC), is very challenging and still poorly understood, therefore it deserves to study further. In this talk, the mechanism of how the gluon distribution changes in a nuclear medium and its implications will be presented.
