A particle beam was a type of energy weapon.

The Exterminator, the flagship of the Dalek fleet during the Second Dalek War, had particle beam weapons, missiles and energy shield repulsors. The Tenth Doctor destroyed the Exterminator with an explosion of fuel tanks on Hurala, which brought the Second Dalek War to an end. (PROSE: Prisoner of the Daleks)

Dalek flying saucers were equipped with particle beam weapons, (TV: Victory of the Daleks)

According to the Twelfth Doctor, particle beams "probably taste[d] like Weetabix" to the Umbra. (COMIC: The Eye of Torment)

The Dai-ai of Naia VII had firm environmental regulations that disallowed particle beam and transporter-based mining technologies. Later, when the Eleventh Doctor's group was captured by the Cybermen, the USS Enterprise-D used a gold-infused particle beam, the "golden beam", to rescue them, disrupting all Cybermen aboard the flagship save the Controller. (COMIC: Assimilation²)
