Rovisco Pais, 1049-001 Lisboa, Portugal 0 (Dated: January 31, 2012) 2 Expressions for the nucleon wave functions in the covariant spectator theory (CST) are derived. n The nucleon is described as a system with a off-mass-shell constituent quark, free to interact with a J an external probe, and two spectator constituent quarks on their mass shell. Integrating over the internal momentum of the on-mass-shell quark pair allows us to derive an effective nucleon wave 0 function that can be written only in terms of the quark and diquark (quark-pair) variables. The 3 derived nucleon wave function includes contributions from S, P and D-waves. ] h p I. INTRODUCTION can be neglected. In this case, the baryonic matrix ele- - ments in the CST can be written (for a brief discussion p of corrections to the RIA, see Ref.
