Proton gravitational form factors and mechanical properties in a light-front quark-diquark model

We present our recent calculation of the gravitational form factors (GFFs) of proton using the light-front quark-diquark model constructed by the soft-wall AdS/QCD. We extract the four quark GFFs by calculating the matrix elements of the symmetric energy momentum tensor. Using the D-term we calculate the pressure and shear distributions of quarks inside the proton in the impact parameter space. The GFFs, A(Q2) and B(Q2) are found to be consistent with the lattice QCD, while the qualitative behavior of the D-term form factor is in agreement with the extracted data from the deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) experiments at JLab, the lattice QCD, and the predictions of different phenomenological models.
