"This rifle, I’m learning, fires a very focused, direct and coherent beam of antiprotons," I explained to Ro. "Antiprotons are stable, but they are typically short-lived in the natural universe, since any collision with a proton will cause both particles to be annihilated in a burst of energy. That is why Collector weapons were able to cut through their advanced armor so easily, while our phasers had so much trouble, requiring multiple very high energy shots to accomplish the same result. Though I haven’t confirmed it yet, I figure disruptors will have a bit easier time of it too, but the Federation doesn't use those."
