Color dipole systematics of the diffraction slope in diffractive photo- and electroproduction of vector mesons

We present the first evaluation of the color dipole diffraction slope from the data on diffractive photo- and electroproduction of vector mesons. The energy and dipole size dependence of the found dipole diffraction slope are consistent with the color dipole gBFKL dynamics.
