Cryogenics dates from 1877, when oxygen was first cooled to the point at which it became a liquid (-297°F, or -183°C); superconductivity was discovered in 1911. Applications of cryogenics include the storage and transport of liquefied gases, food preservation, cryosurgery, rocket fuels, and superconducting electromagnets...

Cryogenics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In physics, cryogenics is the study of the production of very low temperature (below −150 °C, −238 °F or 123 K) and the behavior of materials at those temperatures. Rather than the familiar temperat...

Cryonics is to be distinguished from cryogenics, the physics of low temperature, and cryobiology, the science of low-temperature effects on biological systems. Use of the word "cryogenics" to mean "cryonics" is a quick tip-off that the speaker or writer is ignorant of the subject of cryonics.
