Coupling the human mind to a source of high-voltage [[electricity]] could result in a massive release of artron energy. The [[Eighth Doctor]] once compared the relationship between Artron and normal energy to the movement in the depths of the sea and the waves on the surface.

Even touching a TARDIS could cause the passage of artron energy. [[Clyde Langer]] absorbed some artron energy from the outside of the TARDIS as he was trying to enter it while it was trapped in a [[time loop]] made by [[the Trickster]]. He then used the energy to attack the Trickster, as he was time-sensitive.

The first use of the phrase "artron energy" in the [[BBC Wales]] production era of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' and its spin off TV series was in the 2007 ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]'' TV story ''[[Invasion of the Bane (TV story)|Invasion of the Bane]]'', in which Mrs [[Wormwood (Invasion of the Bane)|Wormwood]] identifies it as background radiation and "The result of travels through the [[Time vortex|space-time vortex]]." Though not directly referred to as artron energy, the 2006 ''Doctor Who'' TV story ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]'' has [[Rose Tyler]] mention the Daleks evolved during the [[Last Great Time War|Time War]] to use an undisclosed background radiation—which is soaked up "when you travel in time in the TARDIS"—as a power supply. She linked it to why the Dalek "[[Metaltron]]" that appeared in the 2005 ''Doctor Who'' TV story ''[[Dalek (TV story)|Dalek]]'' healed itself when Rose—a time traveller—touched its casing. Within ''Dalek'' itself, the Metaltron simply said that "Extrapolating the biomass of a time traveller [referring to Rose] regenerated me," with little further clarification. Also in ''Doomsday'', the [[Genesis Ark]] prison ship is described as Time Lord science that needs the touch of a time traveller to wake up. | The first use of the phrase "artron energy" in the [[BBC Wales]] production era of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' and its spin off TV series was in the 2007 ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]'' TV story ''[[Invasion of the Bane (TV story)|Invasion of the Bane]]'', in which Mrs [[Wormwood (Invasion of the Bane)|Wormwood]] identifies it as background radiation and "The result of travels through the [[Time vortex|space-time vortex]]."

In the 2008 ''[[Torchwood (TV series)|Torchwood]]'' TV story ''[[Reset (TV story)|Reset]]'', [[Plummer]] says the [[lymphocyte]]s and "God knows what other cells" in [[Martha Jones]]' body have mutated. According to Professor [[Aaron Copley]], this is the result of a kind of radiation (not named in the story) which is not found on temporally stable environments on Earth, which gives Martha a "uniquely effective" [[immune system]]. | |||
