Hadronic structure on the light-front. VI. Generalized parton distributions of unpolarized hadrons

We discuss the generalized parton distributions (GPDs) for unpolarized hadrons, as a continuation of our recent work on hadronic structure on the light front. We analyze the unpolarized GPDs for the light nucleon and delta, as well as generic mesons, using the lowest Fock states. We use these GPDs to reconstruct the charge and gravitational form factors, and discuss their relative sizes. The results are also compared to reported QCD lattice results.
