Abstract
The advent of the new generation of 100% duty factor electron accelerators has led to renewed interest in electro-weak interaction physics and in experiments that exploit the spin degrees of freedom in electron scattering. A polarized electron source with the highest possible figure of merit is a crucial element in such experiments. We review the status of polarized electron sources, with particular emphasis on those best suited for use with 100% duty factor accelerators.
