Abstract
Some embodiments include an accelerator waveguide to generate an accelerated radiation beam, and a housing to house to accelerator waveguide. The housing may include an interface to couple the housing to and to decouple the housing from a movable support. Some aspects include coupling a first interface of a housing to a first interface of a movable support, and uncoupling the first interface of the housing from the first interface of the movable support, wherein the housing includes an accelerator waveguide to generate an accelerated radiation beam.
