Exotic matter is the term for strange, electomagnetically interacting matter. It comes in several varieties:

  • Transuranic elements are simply isotopes heavier than uranium. Hawkinium is the most notable of these.
  • Electronium is slightly newer - essentially artificial atoms, clouds of electrons lacking a nucleus.
  • Mirror matter is an unusual form of dark matter which is a reflection of ordinary matter, sometimes called being 'out of phase' and was considered as a potential form of stealth.
  • Hadronium utilizes mirror matter and high-energy reactions in order to form what amounts to a giant, chemically meaningful nucleus.
  • Exomatter combines the above three features into what some term call 'something actually useful' - as in, usable in everyday activities.
  • Neutronium is raw neutron soup. When it can be contained, it is generally used as a form of inertial barrier.
  • Quarkium Like the above, but significantly harder to contain.
  • Hypomatter warps spacetime itself to form its own reactions. While not always electromagnetically interacting, it often can, occasionally in rather novel ways.
