Abstract.

We study in detail the possibility of describing the nucleon (three-quark-system) wave function as a superposition of Gaussian functions. A Faddeev treatment including 8 amplitudes is performed and taken as reference for the exact values. Several approximations are proposed and compared carefully to the exact solutions. Three different potentials have been tested and several observables are considered.
