The P2 experiment at the future MESA accelerator in Mainz plans to measure the weak mixing angle sin2W) in parity violating elastic electron-proton scattering. The aim of the experiment is a very precise measurement of the weak mixing angle with a accuracy of 0.15% at a low four-momentum transfer of Q2=4.5· 10−3 GeV2. In order to achieve this accuracy, it is necessary to monitor the stability of the electron beam and the liquid hydrogen target. Any helicity correlated fluctuations of the target density lead to false asymmetries.

Therefore, it is planned to install a luminosity monitor in forward direction close to the beam axis. The motivation and challenges for designing an air Cherenkov luminosity monitor will be discussed in this talk.
