Spectator theory for three-nucleon electromagnetic currents

In this talk I present some of the more recent developments within the Covariant Spectator Theory. My focus will be on aspects of the derivation of gauge invariant electromagnetic three-nucleon currents which are consistent with the hadronic equations and with the basic assumptions of this framework. Important dynamical ingredients of the three-nucleon currents are also discussed, namely the three-nucleon bound state vertex function and the two-nucleon interaction model they are derived from.
