The '''beta-tachyon''' was a type of [[subatomic particle]], a form of the [[tachyon]] particle. Beta-tachyons could be used to increase the strength of [[Federation]] [[starship]] [[shields]] by a factor of ten. The ship must [[shield modulation|remodulate]] its shields to emit a beta-tachyon pulse, and then project a series of [[antiproton beam]]s into the shield bubble. ({{VOY|The Q and the Grey}})
