    Description
    The E158 experiment at SLAC measured the parity-violating asymmetry in fixed target Moller scattering. This is the most precise measurement of the weak mixing angle at low energy. The final statistical error on the asymmetry is 12 parts per billion. New limits on additional vector bosons and other contact interactions have been set.
