what exactly do you all think meson technology is. I have my theory but it's part of BWO so I can't discus it.

Isn't Meson the name of the guy who made it?
I would think it works this way (why, because it's fun :รพ): it induces an exponantial increment of mass, which leads to the creation of a subspace hole. Then it uses subspace matter ( I think of it about some kind of energy) to make the whole thing to blew up. the explosion plus the collapsing of the subspace node makes that big boom. Yea, I know, not very realistic.
Finally, I don't think it's so much of a fun idea ...

Nope.....that's an antiproton.

Actually Bobboau, I'm sure you can post your theory if you'd like. (since it's not a pivotal part of BWO plot)

Of course, you're probably saying that just for hype effect, which I've just broken on purpose  

The idea posted here about the exponential mass is similar to the prototype sub-space taps, much like what the Shivans use on their vessels.

Is a Meson reactor a rudimentary sub-space tap, utilizing anti-matter protons?

You decide.

Note:  This is off the top of my head (plus some stuff taken from science and is in no way affiliated with BWO, but they can use it if they want)

Meson Cannon

The Meson Cannon first deployed on the GTD Golgotha is a massive and extremely powerful weapons, far more so than any previous GTVA weapon.  The key to the prodigious damage output of this weapons is the use of mesons, strongly interacting elementary particles midway in mass between leptons (electrons and the like) and baryons. (protons, neutrons, etc)  While in principle, the Meson Cannon is similar to a GTVA-standard particle beam cannon in that a linear accelerator is used to propel charged particles to relativistic speeds, instead of typical proton or deuterium beam mass, the Meson Cannon uses mesons, which results in a significantly different end result.  The advantage mesons have over baryons from a weapon designer standpoint is that they interact not with the electromagnetic bonds holding matter together, but instead the strong nuclear force, which binds the nucleons of an atom together.  The effect of massive irradiation of relativstic mesons upon a target has the result of essentially disintigrating it at the nucleon level, bypassing any defenses against standard weapons such as heat dispersing grids and ablative armor.

Note:  All meson-based technolgy is very dangerous and potentially lethal in case of containment field breach.  Targets hit by meson-based weaponry are highly radioactive due to secondary effects resulting from atomic disruption.  Only wear class-5 or better radiation gear when dealing with meson-irradiated materiels.

That's my .05$ (that's worth more than 2)

Now if you really want a challenge, how do you think the Conversion Matrix from Machina Terra works?  I'll give you a hint.....subspace is involved somehow.

That sounds pretty good Shrike.  I like the explanation alot.  Bobboau's was also good, but yes, the whole meson technology is sort of the background for alot of things in BlackWater Operations.

We've gone a little meson happy

Yeah, I was actually going to send you something along these lines, but obviously I got beat to it.

I just had to add this bit in.

Meson - any member of a family of subatomic particles composed of an even number of quarks and antiquarks. Mesons are sensitive to the strong force (the force that binds the components of the nucleus) because their constituent quarks are strongly interacting. Mesons consist of an even number of quarks with half-integral spin, and so they have integral spin. They vary widely in mass, ranging from 140 MeV to nearly 10 GeV. Various types of mesons have been discovered since their existence was first predicted in 1935 by the Japanese physicist Yukawa Hideki. Of those so far identified, the pi meson and the K meson are the most important. Pi mesons, also known as pions, are chiefly responsible for the strong interactions between the protons and neutrons in atomic nuclei. K mesons, or kaons, have several competing decay modes. Investigations of these processes have led to a better understanding of parity (the property of an elementary particle or physical system that indicates whether or not its mirror image occurs in nature) and its nonconservation.

And that's where I got the idea of the meson cannon causing disruptive effects at the nucleon level.  Not that specific reference, but one similar.

My friend is an astrophysicist, he tried to describe the nature of a quark to me. I only have moderate knowledge in magnetic and electrical field theory so let's just say that what he described was a little over my head (say about 4000 feet).

The only thing I really know about quarks is that they make pretty pictures when they're photographed as they blast into a lead plate
