## Abstract

We propose to investigate the properties of nuclear matter by measuring the elastic scattering of J/\psi on nuclei with high precision. The J/\psi mesons are produced from the photons emitted in high energy electron-proton or electron-nucleus scattering in the low-x region. The measurement could be performed at the future ENC, EIC or LHeC facilities.
