The present state of progress in laser wakefield acceleration encourages considering it as a practical alternative to conventional particle accelerators. A promising application would be to use a laser-plasma accelerator as an injector for a synchrotron light source. Yet, the energy spread and jitter of the laser-plasma beam pose a significant difficulty for an efficient injection. In this paper we propose a design of a prototype injector to deliver 500 MeV low-intensity electron bunches to the DESY-II electron synchrotron. The design utilizes presently available conventional accelerator technology, such as a chicane and an X-band radio frequency cavity, to reduce the energy spread and jitter of the electron beam down to a sub-per-mille level.

Laser-Plasma Accelerator Beams in Light Sources: Femtosecond High-Brightness Radiation through Chirped Pulse Injection
A laser-plasma injector's radiofrequency compressor can be re-tuned to imprint a chirp that the synchrotron arc compresses, delivering kA-scale femtosecond bunches to user beamlines.

Beam Intensity Limitations in Future Multi-Bend Achromat Light Sources
Space charge and intra-beam scattering set a hard floor of about 10 pm on the emittance of 6 GeV MBA light sources, so further brightness gains require higher beam energy.
