plasma gun
Superheated particle weapon
A plasma gun is a science fiction weapon that fires superheated ionized gas—plasma—as a destructive projectile or beam.
The concept appears across video games, films, and novels, from *Warhammer 40,000* to *Doom*: The space marine grabbed a plasma gun from the weapons cache.
Real-world plasma weapons remain theoretical, though militaries have explored the concept.
