Description
Gravitational form factors of nuclei are calculated in the relativistic mean field theory.
We compute the mass radius and other radii associated with the energy momentum tensor
for doubly-closed nuclei and their isotopes. We also compute the D-term of these nuclei,
the forward limit of the gravitational form factor $D(t=0)=D$.
The mass-number dependencies of the mechanical radii and D-term are discussed.
Our work for the first time elucidates the strong sensitivity of the various
mechanical properties of nuclei to the nuclear shell structure.
