Description
I will discuss the LHC heavy flavor data in pA collisions to constrain the gluon density at low x in nuclei, where no other data exist. Our results show strong gluon shadowing at low x compared to proton PDF and significant reduction of the current (underestimated) nPDF errors. Its implications for the heavy-ion physics will also be discussed.
