combine reproducible beams from conventional RF-based accelerator technology with novel but still experimental acceleration techniques. It aims to produce high brightness ultra-short electron bunches in the range of sub fs to few fs, at a beam energy of 100-150 MeV, suitable for injection into novel acceleration experiments like Dielectric Laser Acceleration (DLA) and Laser driven Plasma Acceleration (LPA). This paper reports the conceptual design and simulations of a final focus system for injecting into a LPA experiment at ARES, including permanent magnetic quadrupoles (PMQ), sufficient longitudinal space for collinear laser and electron transport, space for required diagnostics and a LPA setup. Space-charge effects play a significant role and are included. Simulation results on the focusing of the ARES electron bunches into and their transport through the laser-driven plasma are presented. The effects of several errors have been simulated and are reported.

Over the last years, the generation and acceleration of ultra-short, high quality electron beams has attracted more and more interest in accelerator science. Electron bunches with these properties are necessary to operate and test novel diagnostics and advanced high gradient accelerating schemes such as plasma accelerators or dielectric laser accelerators. Furthermore, several medical and industrial applications require high-brightness electron beams. The dedicated R&D facility ARES at DESY will provide such probe beams in the upcoming years. After the setup of the normal-conducting RF photoinjector and linear accelerating structures, ARES successfully started the beam commissioning of the RF gun. This paper gives an overview of the ARES photoinjector setup and summarizes the results of the gun commissioning process. The quality of the first generated electron beams is characterized in terms of charge, momentum, momentum spread and beam size. Additionally, the dependencies of the beam parameters on RF settings are investigated. All measurement results of the characterized beams fulfill the requirements to operate the ARES linac with this RF photoinjector.
