We present a conceptual design for a polarimeter based on Compton scattering of laser light on the electron beam for the Super-B accelerator proposed for Frascati, Italy. The accelerator design has polarized electrons in the low-energy ring (4.18 GeV). We want to measure the polarization of every bunch every few seconds using a laser with 119 Mhz repetition rate. The spin rotator section has a second point between the solenoids and interaction point where the polarization is nearly longitudinal with helicity opposite to that found at the interaction point. We plan to use this point to measure the polarization as the possible location near the interaction point has too much background from the collision. We show the area in the accelerator where the polarimeter would be installed and describe the laser as well as the detectors for the Compton scattered electrons and photons.
