Cryogenics

[rugrat]

The company I work for just bought all the equipment to do Cryo. I've used Blue Steels before but I was wondering if i should try it myself. Hmmmm.....

What is your company doing with cyro? I thought that fashion craze was over... The proofs of toughening and aging never brought the fruit it promised.

Cryogenic treatment brings nothing. If a metal is being cooled down, the structure gets denser and the atomic activity deminishes. If it is cold enough, metal can be broken easily. But, as soon as the temperature rises, the activity resumes to the normal level, forcing the grid structure to go back to normal.
The other way round, heating and rapid cooling, does change the structure. In general this hardens the metal. This situation, however, wouldn't be stable, as the string is under tension and mechanically agitated.

Cryogenics for people os only useful if the sales pitch for it become true. Idea is your flash frozen at the moment of death in the hopes that at some future time medicine can easilly cure what killed you as well as revive you from the frozen at death situation your in now. Cheapest form of it involved chopping off your head at death then flash freezing it in the hopes that future science could do cloning and use some of your thawed out frozen remians for that clone. Cryo for humans doesnt help your musical tone. Lol.
