A muon is a short-lived subatomic particle classifed as a lepton. Muons have similiar properties to an electron however they are some 200 time heavier. Like electrons they have antimatter counterparts as well. A build-up of muons in the dilithium chamber of starship's warp core will cause a warp core breach.
If a muon feedback beam is initiated while a full intensity power-transfer is being conducted, a build-up of muons will develop in the warp core. If that ship was to then go to warp speed, the warp engines would explode. It would require a level 3 diagnostic of the Dilithium chamber to detect the muon particle build-up. (TNG: "The Next Phase")
In 2370, Julian Bashir used muons to destroy the nanobiogenic Harvester devices used by the T'Lani and the Kellerun during the war between their species. (DS9: "Armageddon Game")
