Abstract

We study multipole expansion of the momentum currents in hadrons, with three series S(J)S^{(J)}, T~(J)\tilde T^{(J)}, and T(J)T^{(J)}, in connection with the gravitational fields generated nearby. The momentum currents are related to their energy-momentum form factors, which in principle can be probed through processes like deeply-virtual Compton scattering currently studied at JLab 12 GeV facility and future Electron Ion Collider. We define the leading momentum-current multipoles, tensor monopole τ\tau (T0T0) and scalar quadrupole σ^ij\hat \sigma^{ij} (S2S2) moments, relating the former to the so-called DD-term in the literature. We calculate the momentum current distribution in hydrogen atom and its monopole moment in the basic unit of τ0=2/4M\tau_0 =\hbar^2/4M, showing that the sign of DD-term has little to do with mechanical stability. The momentum current distribution also strongly modifies the static gravitational field inside hadrons.
