Using NJL density-dependent quark masses in a light-front dressed-quark model, the paper predicts O(10–40%) medium modifications of GTMDs linked to quark OAM, spin, and spin–orbit correlation, and defines eA/eP GTMD ratios as nuclear-density probes.

abstract
We study the parametrization of the energy-momentum tensor for the case of a proton in momentum space in terms of gravitational transverse momentum-dependent distributions (TMDs). These gravitational TMDs are investigated with the inclusion of higher-twist contributions to predict the mechanical properties, specifically the transverse pressure and shear force distributions, along with the polarization-dependent $\Pi^q_S$ and $\Pi^q_A$ terms. The corresponding distributions are computed individually for both $u$ and $d$ quark flavors. The calculations have been performed in the light-cone framework using the spectator diquark model. A strong binding contribution to the transverse pressure is observed in the low-momentum space for both quark flavors of the proton.

Electron-Ion Collision Environment: Distribution of Quark Spin and Orbital Angular Momentum
Using NJL density-dependent quark masses in a light-front dressed-quark model, the paper predicts O(10–40%) medium modifications of GTMDs linked to quark OAM, spin, and spin–orbit correlation, and defines eA/eP GTMD ratios as nuclear-density probes.
