Nonperturbative parton distributions and the proton spin problem

The Lorentz contracted form of the static wave functions is used to calculate the valence parton distributions for mesons and baryons, boosting the rest frame solutions of the path integral Hamiltonian. It is argued that nonperturbative parton densities are due to excited multigluon baryon states. A simple model is proposed for these states ensuring realistic behavior of valence and sea quarks and gluon parton densities at $Q^2= 10 (GeV/c)^2$. Applying the same model to the proton spin problem one obtains $Σ_3 = 0.18 $ for the same $Q^2$.
