      abstract     = {Laser driven plasma accelerators are offering high gradient
                      (∼10-100 GV/m), high quality (low emittance, short bunch
                      length) electron beams, which can be suitable for future
                      compact, bright and tunable light sources. In the framework
                      of the Laboratory for Laser-and beam-drivenplasma
                      Acceleration (LAOLA) collaboration at Deutsches
                      Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) the external injection
                      experiment for injecting electron bunches from a
                      conventional RF accelerator into the linear plasma wave is
                      in progress. External injection experiments at REGAE
                      (Relativistic Elec-tron gun for Atomic Exploration) require
                      sub-20fs precision synchronization of laser and electron
                      beams in order to perform a beam scan into the plasma wave
                      by varying the delay between electron beam and laser pulses.
                      In this paper we present a novel optical to microwave
                      synchronizationscheme, based on a balanced single output
                      integrated Mach-Zehnder Modulator (MZM). The scheme offers a
                      highly sensitive phase detector between a pulsed 800 nm
                      Ti:Sa. laser and a 3 GHz microwave reference source. It is
                      virtually independent of input laser power fluctuations and
                      it offers femtosecond long-term precision. Together with the
                      principal of operation of this setup, we will present
                      promising preliminary experimental measurements of the new
                      detector stability.},
