Mirror matter should not be confused with anti-matter which has quite different properties (in fact, some people have the unfortunate habit of using the term 'mirror matter' when they really mean anti-matter).

 IGN: Trek Report: Report From the Mirror Universe
That original story, Mirror, Mirror, introduced viewers to an alternate universe that was dominated not by a United Federation of Planets but a Terran Empire whose ruthless domination of the galaxy struck fear into the hearts of anyone who stood in their way.
The Mirror Universe made quite a comeback during the later seasons of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine but the Empire took quite a beating - in the years between the original series and DS9, the Empire had fallen and humanity became the sub-species.
In every story that involved the Mirror Universe, the story focused on someone from "our" universe having to make their way through a universe that was the same in many ways but dangerously different in many others.

 : RevolutionSF - Through A Glass Darkly: The Mirror Universe : Review
Since the Mirror Universe is an evil alternate of the main Trek setting, there's not a lot of new technology for gearheads.
The capsule description of a Mirror campaign is a "darkly humorous soap opera with science fiction elements." The focus on story and character is wise, since the violent nature of the Mirror Universe might tempt game masters to use it for nothing but bloody fights, which wastes a lot of the setting's potential.
An entire chapter on the "science" of the Mirror Universe is pretty much an exercise in technobabble handwaving and could easily be summed up in a sidebar.
