Verterons are subatomic particles that are present in wormholes. (VOY: "Eye of the Needle") Verterons can interfere with sensor scans and only exist when artificially created. (TNG: "The Pegasus")
The Bajoran wormhole was formed by self-sustaining verterons. (DS9: "In the Hands of the Prophets")
As of the mid-2150s, a verteron-emission array was installed on Mars to redirect comets for terraforming purposes. The Verteron Array was briefly hijacked by Terra Prime supremacists seeking to rid Earth of aliens, but their plot was foiled by Captain Jonathan Archer of Enterprise. (ENT: "Terra Prime")
A pulse of verterons is capable of disabling a starship. The Enterprise-D was disabled by a Hekaran probe in 2370 when the probe emitted a verteron pulse, immediately disabling the Enterprise's warp and impulse drives as well as the ship's shields. (TNG: "Force of Nature")
- In the Star Trek/X-men crossover novel Planet X, it was revealed that verteron particles are present in subspace. The novel also revealed that Nightcrawler, an X-man with the power of teleportation, reappears in normal space covered in verteron particles, suggesting that the dimension he travels through when he teleports is related to subspace
