| Summary: | We analyze the hard scattering amplitude of gravitational form factors (GFFs) of hadrons within QCD factorization at large momentum transfers, focusing on their conformal field theory (CFT) description. These form factors are key to studying quark and gluon angular momentum in hadrons, connected to Mellin moments of Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS). The analysis uses diffeomorphism invariance and conformal symmetry in momentum space. A non-Abelian TJJ 3-point function at O(αs2) reveals a dilaton interaction in the t-channel. We present a parameterization relevant for future DVCS/GFF experiments at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). |
