We investigate the reactions D(e,e{sup {prime}}p)n and D({rvec e},e{sup {prime}}p)n at GeV energies and discuss the opportunities to distinguish between different models for the nuclear ground state by measuring the response functions. In calculating the final-state interaction (FSI) we employ Glauber theory, and we also include relativistic effects in the electromagnetic current. We include not only the central FSI, but also the spin-orbit FSI which is usually neglected in (e,e{sup {prime}}p) calculations within the Glauber framework, and we show that this contribution plays a crucial role for the fifth response function. All of the methods developed here can be applied to any target nucleus. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
