## Abstract

Elastic electron-3He scattering is studied in the relativistic impulse approximation. The amplitudes for the three-nucleon system - 3He - are obtained by solving the relativistic generalization of the Faddeev equation. The charge and magnetic form factor are calculated and compared with the experimental data for the momentum transfer squared up to 100 fm-2. The influence of the various nucleon form factors is investigated.
