- # Anomalous Research
- Anomalous Research is a subdepartment of Science focused around the containment and manipulation of various unique anomalies.
- ## Equipment
- <Box>
- <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="AnomalyScanner"/>
- <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="MachineAnomalyVessel"/>
- <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="MachineAPE"/>
- </Box>
- Scanners, vessels, and A.P.E.s are all used in the containment and observation of anomalies.

- <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="MachineAnomalyGenerator"/>

- The anomaly generator can produce a random anomaly somewhere on the station at the cost of plasma.
- ## Anomalies
- Anomalies are static objects that appear on the station. They cannot be moved, and must be worked around, no matter their location.

- Each anomaly has three main stats, two of which can be seen in anomaly scans:
- - [color=#a4885c]Severity:[/color] This is a numerical value corresponding to the danger of an anomaly.
- - [color=#a4885c]Stability:[/color] Shown as either decaying, stable, or growing; this is how frequently and widespread the effects will be.
- - [color=#a4885c]Health:[/color] Health is a hidden stat. It decreases when you use [color=#a4885c]containment particles[/color] on an anomaly. If you use too many, the anomaly will disappear.
- ## Pulses and Supercritical Events
- The most dangerous effects of anomalies are seen during [color=#a4885c]pulses[/color] and [color=#a4885c]supercritical events[/color].
- Pulses are semi-regular bursts of anomalous effects. They're moderately dangerous, scaling with both the severity and stability of an anomaly.
- Supercritical events are only seen if an anomaly reaches 100% severity. If this happens, the anomaly will swell before disappearing into a catastrophic event. These should be avoided at all costs!
