Laser-plasma acceleration has developed into a technique providing high-energy electron beams as a driver for undulator-based X-ray sources. The LUX beamline, built in close collaboration of the University of Hamburg and DESY, is designed to be such a light source. The plasma acceleration stage is driven by the ANGUS laser, a Ti:Sapphire based system capable of producing 5J, 25fs pulses at a repetition rate of up to 5Hz. After significant in-house development, the laser has reached an operational stability, that enables us to repeatedly demonstrate 24-hour operation of the laser-plasma accelerator with several 10k consecutive electron beams and high availability. The electron beam quality is sufficient to drive a miniature undulator, generating undulator radiation at wavelengths below 4nm.

Integrating the laser into an accelerator-grade controls system, with several hundred online diagnostic channels, was a crucial step to achieve operational stability and day-to-day reproducibility. Here, we discuss the stability and control of spectral and temporal pulse properties in the context of 24-hour long experimental runs.
