It is also required in certain Engineering DOff assignments, producing prototype turrets and platforms.

These assignments can be accessed at the console on the desk in the captain's ready room under the Main Engineering tab.

The ones that require this particle type are:

- Assemble Heavy Antiproton Turret from prototype

- Assemble Heavy Disruptor Turret from prototype

- Assemble Heavy Phaser Turret from prototype

- Assemble Photon Torpedo Platform from prototype

- Assemble Quantum Torpedo Platform from prototype

- Assemble Tricobalt Torpedo Platform from prototype
