%N Odd prime numbers that are factors of only one 3-Carmichael number.

%C Beeger proved in 1950 that if p < q < r are primes such that p*q*r is a 3-Carmichael number, then q < 2p^2 and r < p^3. Therefore there is a finite number of 3-Carmichael numbers which divisible by a given prime.

%C An odd prime p is a term if and only if A290481(A033270(p)) = 1. - _Max Alekseyev_, Jan 31 2024
