A '''Matter-Antimatter Reaction Assembly''' (often known simply as an M/ARA) is a type of energy reactor which is fueled by injectors of matter and antimatter into a central reaction element, creating large amounts of energy when those two materials mutually annihilate each other. Matter and antimatter is injected into the M/ARA in an intermix 1:1 ratio. (TNG: "Coming of Age") The dilithium crystal is used to moderate this reaction.

The [[Dilithium Articulation Frame]] is housed inside the M/ARA, (TNG: "Skin of Evil") behind the [[Dilithium Chamber Hatch]]. (TNG: "The Drumhead")
