Mass Effect 2 Items & Upgrades Database: Entry Details
Collector Particle Beam
Category: Weapon
Type: Heavy Weapon
Installation: Base Installation
Precise and lethal, this focused-radiation weapon is very effective against shields, barriers, and armor.

The amount of energy required to create a destructive beam is several orders of magnitude more than the amount needed to launch a high-velocity projectile via a mass effect field.

The weapon you've retrieved appears to be a beam weapon of Collector origin, but efforts to understand the technology and replicate it have failed. With enough research, Normandy's engineers may be able to produce beam weapons, perhaps on a larger scale.
Obtained:
• Horizon - Received by inspecting particle beam on collector debris
