A Liquid Hydrogen Target for Precision Measurement of the Weak Mixing Angle in Moller Scattering at SLAC

Description

A 150 cm long liquid hydrogen target has been built for the SLAC End Station A E158 experiment. The target loop volume is 55 liters, and the maximum target heat load deposited by the electron beam is ∼ 700 W. The liquid hydrogen density fluctuation with full beam current (120 Hz repetition rate, 6 x 1011 electrons/spill) on target is well below 10-4 level, which fulfills the requirement for a precision measurement of the weak mixing angle in the polarized electron-electron scattering process
