The Pym Particle is an invention by Dr. Hank Pym. The Pym Particle is a radioactive molecule suspended in a viscous liquid to keep it stable and control energy regulation. This creates an effect similar to a boom tube, the device that lenses spacetime near New Genesis.

The mass and volume of the target are reduced, allowing a grown person to shrink to near microscopic sizes or grow to some fifty feet in height. Secondary controls allow the user to adjust the scale of electrostatic repulsion; this corrects for many of the issues of force over area that might otherwise be encountered, and adjust the mass/weight ratio rapidly as well. Thus, an insect-sized man could throw a punch with a strength/weight ratio corrected even by the q^2 ratio.

Most people using Pym radiation require enclosed environmental suits. Metagene responses to Pym radiation have resulted in secondary powers that address issues such as q^2 weight, heat buildup, and respiration.

Prolonged exposure to the Pym Particle exacerbated Pym's underlying schizophrenic disorders. Other users have not seen a similar effect.
