Description
One aim for the new electron accelerator MESA is to measure the weak mixing angle in electron proton scattering to a precision of 0.14 %. The beam polarization significantly contributes to this measurement. The Møller polarimeter proposed by V. Luppov and E. Chudakov opens the way to reach a sufficiently accurate determination of polarization. At the moment the polarized atomic hydrogen target is under construction. The current R&D status is presented.
