Consciousness: Consciosness is beyond and above awareness and sentience. Consciousness is                                  immanent in the universe, but transcends universe beyond scientific perception                                    especially AI.

Cryogenic Temperature: Typically below -120 degree C. Cryogenics are gases like He, H, N, O etc.,                                            which have boiling points below 120 K. Materials of construction for                                                      cryogenic applications must not be britle.

gel effect : The gel effect or the Tromsdorff-Norrish effect is a phenomenon of autocatylitic free                              radical bulk polymerization which exhibits an increase in polymerization rate due to chain-                    entanglement in the increasing viscous solution which hinders the termination step more                      than the initiation step. An example is the polymerization of methyl methacrylate. The                          phenomenon may lead to runaway reaction scenario.
