The exclusive photoproduction of vector mesons provides a unique opportunity to constrain the gluon distribution function within protons and nuclei. Measuring vector mesons of various masses over a wide range of rapidity and as a function of transverse momentum provides important information on the evolution of the gluon distribution within nuclei. A variety of measurements, including the exclusive J/ψ, ρ, and Υ meson production in pPb (at nucleonnucleon center of mass energies of 5.02 and 8.16 TeV) and PbPb (5.02 TeV) collisions, are presented as a function of squared transverse momentum and the photon-proton center of mass energy. Finally, compilations of these data and previous measurements are compared to various theoretical predictions.
