Description
The gravitational form factors (GFFs) of hadrons are related to the second Mellin moments of their generalized parton distributions. They can be extracted from matrix elements of the energy-momentum tensor of QCD. We present the gluon and quark flavor contributions to the GFFs of the pion and the nucleon in the kinematic region $0 \leq -t \leq 2~\text{GeV}^2$ on a clover improved ensemble with $a = 0.091~\text{fm}$, $N_f=2+1$, and $m_{\pi} = 170~\text{MeV}$. The results are renormalized non-perturbatively via the RI-MOM scheme. We obtain estimates for the energy and mechanical distributions, and for the forward limit momentum fraction, spin, and $D$-term flavor decompositions.
