This presentation will discuss niobium accelerating structures, the liquid helium refrigerator, high power microwave source, radiation shielding and licensing for high-average-power commercial electron accelerators. Applications to be briefly reviewed include radioisotope production, high-power x-ray generation (for cargo scanning, industrial sterilization, etc.), high-flux neutron sources, high intensity positron sources, and high-power free-electron lasers.
