Gravitational form factors and transverse spin sum rule in a light front quark-diquark model in AdS/QCD

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

The gravitational form factors are related to the matrix elements of the energy-momentum tensor TμνT^{μν}. Using the light front wave functions of the scalar quark-diquark model for nucleon predicted by the soft-wall AdS/QCD, we calculate the flavor dependent A(Q2)A(Q^2), B(Q2)B(Q^2) and Cˉ(Q2)\bar{C}(Q^2) form factors. We also present all the matrix element of the energy-momentum tensor in a transversely polarized state. Further, we evaluate the matrix element of Pauli-Lubanski operator in this model and show that the intrinsic spin sum rule involves the form factor Cˉ\bar{C}. The longitudinal momentum densities in the transverse impact parameter space are also discussed for both unpolarized and transversely polarized nucleons.
