  abstract     = {{DESY is studying the feasibility of a 6 GeV laser-plasma injector for top-up operation of its future flagship synchrotron light source PETRA IV. A potential design of such an injector involves a single plasma stage, a beamline for beam capture and phase space manipulation, and a X-band rf energy compressor. Numerical tracking with realistic beam distributions shows that an energy variation below 0.1%, rms and a transverse emittance about 1 nm-rad, rms can be achieved under realistic timing, energy, and pointing jitters. PETRA IV injection efficiency studies performed with a conservative 5% beta-beating indicate negligible beam losses for the simulated beams during top-up. Provided the necessary progress on high-power lasers and plasma cells, the laser plasma injector could become a competitive alternative to the conventional injector chain.}},
