The separation of doublet levels in the mass 5, 6, 14, 15, and 17 systems is calculated from recent semiphenomenological potentials. Shell-model harmonic-oscillator functions are used to represent the nucleons. These wave functions are modified by means of correlation functions which vanish whenever any two nucleons approach closer than the hard-core radius and approach the unmodified oscillator function for large nucleon separations. It is found that the two-body spin-orbit potentials give 50 to 70% of the experimentally observed splittings.

The energy-momentum relations for massive and massless particles are E=p2/2m and E=pc respectively. According to Einstein, these two different expressions come from the same formula [Formula: see text]. Quarks and partons are believed to be the same particles, but they have quite different properties. Are they two different manifestations of the same covariant entity as in the case of Einstein's energy-momentum relation? The answer to this question is YES. It is possible to construct harmonic oscillator wave functions which can be Lorentz-boosted. They describe quarks bound together inside hadrons. When they are boosted to an infinite-momentum frame, these wave functions exhibit all the peculiar properties of Feynman's parton picture. This formalism leads to a parton distribution corresponding to the valence quarks, with a good agreement with the experimentally observed distribution.

The problem of normalization related to energy-dependent potentials is examined in the context of the path integral approach, and a justification is given. As examples, the harmonic oscillator and the hydrogen atom (radial) where, respectively the frequency and the Coulomb's constant depend on energy, are considered and their propagators determined. From their spectral decomposition, we have found that the wave functions extracted are correctly normalized.
