'''[[Chronon]] energy''' was released by [[TARDIS]]es; those who travelled in them were left with traces of chronon energy. Even though [[Millie Peterson]] only had a brief trip, she still had enough chronon energy to track. ([[WC]]: ''[[Attack of the Snowmen]]'')

'''[[Chronon]] energy''', '''cronon energy''', or '''chronon radiation''' (also known as '''time energy''') was a form of [[radiation]] that was linked to temporal anomalies and [[time travel]]. It was carried by [[chronon wave]]s. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Interstitial (audio story)|Interstitial]]'')
 
[[TARDIS]]es released chronon energy ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Attack of the Snowmen (short story)|Attack of the Snowmen]]'') and [[Magnus Greel]]'s arrival in the [[time cabinet]] in the [[1800s]] via a [[zygma beam]] caused massive discharges of chronon radiation which flowed along the [[Earth]]'s telluric currents, forming the [[Dragon Path]]s.
 
The segments of the [[Key to Time]] were [[Tracer|traced]] by the chronon radiation they gave off. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shadow of Weng-Chiang (novel)|The Shadow of Weng-Chiang]]'')
 
Similarly, those who travelled through time were left with traces of chronon energy, even if the travel was brief. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Attack of the Snowmen (short story)|Attack of the Snowmen]]'')
 
The [[Fifth Doctor]] noted that both he and [[the Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] were "riddled" with chronon energy, enough to keep [[Kalu]] from being able to affect them. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Interstitial (audio story)|Interstitial]]'')
 
The [[Vist]] were capable of "smelling" time energy. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Forbidden Time (audio story)|The Forbidden Time]]'')
 
[[Time Lord]] bodies were apparently sustained by chronon energy, as the [[Sixth Doctor]] was weakened to the point of death when most of his chronon energy was lost during his confrontation with the [[Lamprey]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Spiral Scratch (novel)|Spiral Scratch]]'')
 
The [[Ninth Doctor]] could smell it in the air, describing the scent as "bananas and ice cream". ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Bidding War (comic story)|The Bidding War]]'')
 
[[Weeping Angel]]s fed on time energy created when they threw their victims into the past to live off of the energy of their "lost days." ([[TV]]: ''[[Blink (TV story)|Blink]]'', ''[[The Time of Angels (TV story)|The Time of Angels]]''/''[[Flesh and Stone (TV story)|Flesh and Stone]]'', ''[[The Angels Take Manhattan (TV story)|The Angels Take Manhattan]]'')
 
The [[Time Beetle]] fed off time energy created by disruptions to [[timeline]]s. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)|chaptnum=3|chaptname=Everything Changes|page=132}}) [[Rose Tyler]] knew that the Beetle "[fed] off time, by changing time." ([[TV]]: {{cs|Turn Left (TV story)}})
 
The [[Eleventh Doctor]] stated that pure, unrefined temporal energy is "the fire at the end of the universe". ([[TV]]: ''[[Flesh and Stone (TV story)|Flesh and Stone]]'') Thanks to the [[Kovarian Chapter]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'') temporarily destroying the TARDIS, ([[TV]]: ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'') [[total event collapse|all of time and space was nearly destroyed]] by this; however, their blunder was corrected by the Doctor. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Big Bang (TV story)|The Big Bang]]'')
