Based on the color-dipole picture, we present a successful parameter-free prediction for the recent high-energy J/ψ photoproduction data from the Large Hadron Collider. The experimental data provide empirical evidence for the transition from color transparency to saturation.Inspired by experimental data [1] on J/ψ photoproduction, γp → J/ψ p, at very high energies obtained at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), we revive our predictions [2, 3] on J/ψ production based on the color-dipole picture (CDP) 1 . As depicted in figs. 1 and 2, the total photoabsorption cross section and the forward production of quark-antiquark states,T,L p, of total spin J = 1 at low values of x ∼ = Q 2 /W 2 ≪ 1 are represented by [3,4]
