abstract
The cross-sections of exclusive (coherent) photoproduction $J/\psi$ and $\psi(\mathrm{2S})$ mesons in ultra-peripheral PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of $5.02\,\mathrm{TeV}$ are measured using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $228\pm10\,\mathrm{\mu b}^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment in 2018. The differential cross-sections are measured separately as a function of transverse momentum and rapidity in the nucleus-nucleus centre-of-mass frame for $J/\psi$ and $\psi(\mathrm{2S})$ mesons. The integrated cross-sections are measured to be \mbox{$\sigma^\mathrm{coh}_{J/\psi} = 5.965 \pm 0.059 \pm 0.232 \pm 0.262\,\mathrm{mb}$} and \mbox{$\sigma^\mathrm{coh}_{\psi(\mathrm{2S})} = 0.923 \pm 0.086 \pm 0.028 \pm 0.040\,\mathrm{mb}$}, where the first listed uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third due to the luminosity determination. The cross-section ratio is measured to be \mbox{$\sigma^\mathrm{coh}_{\psi(\mathrm{2S})}/\sigma^\mathrm{coh}_{J/\psi} = 0.155 \pm 0.014 \pm 0.003$}, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. These results are compatible with theoretical predictions.

Unbiased Data-Driven Determination of the Nuclear Dipole Amplitude in the Color Glass Condensate
The 208Pb dipole amplitude is learned from R_pPb and coherent J/ψ photoproduction data with the BK equation embedded in training, giving Q²_s0(Pb)/Q²_s0(p) = 3.17 and an MV-type initial condition.

Probing Gluon Shadowing in Heavy Nuclei through Bayesian Reweighting of J/$\psi$ Photoproduction in Ultra-Peripheral Collisions
Bayesian reweighting of nuclear parton distributions with coherent J/psi photoproduction data yields a lead gluon modification factor of about 0.60 at x=1e-4, implying strong gluon shadowing.
