Abstract
We present the results of a preliminary determination of sin2 theta(W) from a study of nuFe scattering in the Lab E detector at Fermilab. Th e analysis is based on a sample of 5 x 10(5) events with a mean neutri no energy of 166 GeV. Our result, sin2 theta(W) = 0.2242 +/- 0.0044exp t. +/- 0.0047model, is the highest energy high statistics determinatio n of the weak mixing angle using neutrino data.
