*A beam of light is a light ray.

The beam in nautical terminology refers to the most extreme width (or breadth) of a vessel, or a point alongside the ship at the mid-point of its length. The latter usage also appears in the expression "abeam".
A beam is a construction element in buildings.
In musical notation, a beam is one or more lines used to connect multiple consecutive eighth notes, sixteenth notes, etc. Beams usually connect notes of the same duration, but in general they may connect any combination of notes usually written with flags.
A BEAM robot is an automatically moving machine based on analog electronics.
BEAM is an acronym meaning "Basic Enterprise Architecture Methodology", a procedure used for building larger databases or information systems.

Beam-powered propulsionBeam-powered propulsion is a class of spacecraft propulsion mechanisms that use energy beamed to the spacecraft from a remote power plant. Many proposed spacecraft propulsion mechanisms use power in the form of electricity. Usually these schemes assume ei	Beam diameterBeam diameter Of an electromagnetic beam, along any specified line that (a) intersects the beam axis and (b) lies in any specified plane normal to the beam axis, the distance between the two diametrically opposite points at which the irradiance is a speci	Beam divergenceBeam divergence Of an electromagnetic beam, in any plane that intersects the beam axis, the increase in beam diameter with distance from the aperture from which the beam emerges.
