Slow damage, similar to EMP, does not reduce enemy hitpoints. Instead it gradually decreases the move speed and rate of fire of enemy units.

EMP damage
Unlike most other weapons, EMP does not directly damage the enemy. Instead it fills up a separate EMP bar on the enemy. The size of a unit's "EMP health" is its current health so damaged units are easier to EMP. When 100% EMP damage is reached (EMP damage exceeds current health) a unit is completely disabled and cannot move or return fire. Damage above 100% increases EMP time by 1 second per 2.5% up to a maximum EMP time that is different for each weapon. EMP heals automatically and a unit will be re-enabled once the EMP bar drops below 100% again. Against shields EMP will deal 1/3 of its damage. EMP is yellow, or in the case of the self-destructing Imp, blue.
Disarm is a particular type of EMP that will leave the afflicted units able to move, but unable to use any weapons or special abilities (this includes jumping, using build power, regeneration or receiving income from the commander's Vanguard economy module). Disarmed units flash yellow instead of blue. Disarm has a separate bar.
Slow damage
Slow damage, similar to EMP, does not reduce enemy hitpoints. Instead it gradually decreases the move speed and rate of fire of enemy units. Like EMP the slow health of a unit is the current health of the unit. The reduction is the slow damage taken divided by the max health of the unit. Slow damage maxes out at 50% and cannot be increased past that point. Like EMP damage, slow damage also deals 1/3 of its damage against shields and automatically heals by 4% of the unit's current health per second once it has stopped taking further slow damage. Weapons with slow ability are purple.
Many slowing weapons are actually disruptors, represented as purple projectiles or beams with a white core. These do both normal and slow damage.
Capture damage
Dominatrix stuff.
