 * A raygun is a (primarily science-fiction) weapon, delivering to a target a beam of destructive particles or radiant energy, and generally featuring very slow decay of the (destructive-)energy density of the beam,  due to any lateral spreading, as distance from the weapon increases on its path to the target.

I replaced, not bcz I think my whole version is desirable, but bcz what I found had way too many misconceptions being promoted. An interested and careful editor can trim out many of my details, provided they DON”T restore any wording that I threw out, which was called for by the colleague’s wild guesses about the substance of the late-20th-cen. physics involved. —JerzyA (talk), the physics guy, 05:36, 18 May 2020 (UTC)~.
