Abstract
This paper uses the covariant spectator theory to calculate the deuteron electromagnetic form factors, yielding impressive quantitative results for deuteron observables. Special attention is given to a consistent treatment of currents generated by the nuclear force models obtained from the 2008 high-precision fits to the $N\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}N$ scattering data. Noteworthy results are (1) the neutron charge form factor prediction and (2) determination of two off-shell nucleon form factors that contribute to electron-deuteron scattering.
