Since the beam reduces the objects into particles and reconstructs it, doesn't it imply that it's able to destroy the ring in the first place? I guess it's necessary to get rid of the particles to make it so they can't re-build it again. But that does raise the question: Would the ability to reconstruct the ring affect one the same way the ring itself would? Or does the ring need to exist to exert its power?

nope. it simply wouldn't be able to get a lock.

conversely if they are able to transport it, the act of disassembling it would unmake the spirit sauron poured into it, being remade somewhere else will not have the same ...sparkle.
