The phaser energy is released through the application of the '''Rapid Nadion Effect''' (RNE). Rapid nadions are short-lived subatomic particles possessing special properties related to high-speed interactions within atomic nuclei. Among these properties is the ability to liberate and transfer strong nuclear forces within a particular class of super-conducting crystals known as ''fushigi-no-umi''. The crystals were so named when it appeared to researchers at Starfleet's Tokyo R&D facility that the materials being developed represented a virtual "sea of wonder" before them. | The phaser energy is released through the application of the '''Rapid Nadion Effect''' (RNE).
