Partonic angular momentum in the nucleon's chiral periphery

We study the nucleon's partonic angular momentum (AM) content at peripheral transverse distances b=O(Mπ−1), where the structure is governed by chiral dynamics. We compute the nucleon form factors of the energy-momentum tensor in chiral effective field theory (ChEFT) and construct the transverse...
