abstract = {{The MESA injection system will produce the spin-polarized electron beam for the upcoming accelerator MESA in Germany. The photoemission electron source (STEAM) will deliver 150 uA of spin-polarized electrons from GaAs-based photocathodes for the P2 experiment. Afterwards the low-energy beam transportation system (MELBA) can rotate the spin using two Wien filters and a solenoid for polarization measurements and to compensate for the spin precession in MESA. A chopper and buncher system prepares the phase space for the first acceleration in the normal-conducting pre-booster MAMBO. First OPAL simulation results of MELBA were presented at IPAC’21. Meanwhile these simulations have been extended by a 270-degree-bending alpha magnet as well as the electrostatic and magnetostatic fieldmaps of the Wien filters. Furthermore the fieldmaps of the 4 modules of the pre-accelerator MAMBO have been implemented. Hence, the complete MESA injection system could be simulated in OPAL and the results will be shown.}},
