| - | Rastan Particles are hadrons comprised of 2 up quarks and 1 strange quark, making them a type of sigma baryon. However, unlike the majority of hadrons, their charge is strongly aligned along a single axis, like a subatomic bar magnet. They are often conceptualised as an prolate spheroid. Internally, they are conceptualised as having the 2 up quarks orbiting in a "dumbell" configuration, similar to an electron p-orbital aligned wiht the major axis, while the centre point is orbited by the strange quark in a tight circular orbit. This alignment results in a strange interaction with magnetic fields, called the Rastan Bridging Effect. | + | Rastan Particles are hadrons comprised of 2 up quarks and 1 strange quark, making them a type of sigma baryon.

| When introduced to a strong magnetic field, Rastan Particles immediately align themselves with the direction of the magnetic containment field lines, while also being drawn towards the containment horizon of the field. They spread themselves across the containment horizon, and bridge across any momentary gaps or inconsistencies in the magnetic field, providing stability and more effective containment. | When introduced to a strong magnetic field, Rastan Particles immediately align themselves with the direction of the magnetic containment field lines, while also being drawn towards the containment horizon of the field.

| - | As with all [Science Substances]], a character with at least 1 rank in the relevant speciality ([[Etheric Science]] in this case) can spend 1 minute of appropriate roleplaying to apply 1 measure of Rastan Particles to an item. After this roleplaying, they should unpeel the sticker that represents this substance, stick it to the lammie of the item being powered-up, and record the current date and time on it. | + | As with all [[Science Substances]], a character with at least 1 rank in the relevant speciality ([[Etheric Science]] in this case) can spend 1 minute of appropriate roleplaying to apply 1 measure of Rastan Particles to an item.
