In previous papers we have presented a wave model for
conservative bound systems resulted from the equivalency between
the Schrödinger and wave equations. We proved that the normal
curves of the characteristic surface of the wave equation, denoted
by C curves, are solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation,
written for the same system, and correspond to the same constants
of motion as those resulting from the Schrödinger equation. In
this paper we present a method for computing the energetic values
of conservative bound systems which is based on the properties of
the C curves. The method is applied to the state of
helium,
and
states of lithium and
state of beryllium. Our theoretical values are compared with
experimental data taken from well-known books. The relative error
of our method is less than
