We discuss the QCD and electroweak physics that becomes accessible by the analysis of semi-leptonic neutral weak amplitudes in polarized electron-light ion collisions at an EIC. Specifically, we discuss the reach for precise weak mixing angle measurements at much higher Q2 than fixed target measurements, new neutral current spin-independent and -dependent interference structure functions, and searches for e − τ charged lepton flavor violation.
