The aim of our experiment is the first direct high-precision measurement of the g-factor of a single proton with a relative precision of 10−9 or better. The g-factor is determined by the ratio g=2νL/νc of the free cyclotron frequency νc and the Larmor frequency νL. νc is determined by the three eigenfrequencies of the trapped proton. νL is extractable by a measured probability distribution given by the number of induced spin transitions driven by an external field as a function of the excitation frequency. The continuous Stern-Gerlach effect is utilized to detect the induced spin transitions in a second Penning trap with an inhomogenous magnetic field. A change of the spin state due to an excitation of the magnetic dipole transition results in a change of the axial eigenfrequency. The status of the experiment and current developments with a measurement at the 10−6 level are presented.
