Summary
The authors propose a physical definition of consciousness, termed the Quantum Consciousness Parameter (QCP), derived from an intuitive definition. They suggest QCP is the elementary level of consciousness in quantum particles, which can explain both perceptible and non-perceptible aspects of nature and existing physical postulates. Human consciousness is described as the most complex, with a fractal dimension of 4.85 based on EEG experiments by other groups, while other species have lower fractal dimensions. The paper also draws analogies between neurons and electrons/photons from a genome perspective and argues that QCP can provide a confirmatory proof for Einstein's postulate on the constancy of the speed of light, potentially elevating it to a law.

Abstract
In this paper, we have first given an intuitive definition of "Consciousness" as realized by us. Next, from this intuitive definition we derived the physical definition of quantum consciousness (Quantum Consciousness Parameter or QCP). This QCP is the elementary level of consciousness in quantum particles, which are the most elementary particles in nature. Thus QCP can explain both the perceptible and non-perceptible nature and some existing postulates of physics. We conceptualize that the level of human consciousness is most complex having highest fractal dimension of 4.85 in the electroencephalographs experiment done by other research groups. On the other hand, other species are having lesser consciousness level, which can be reflected by lesser fractal dimensions. We have also explored the bio informatics of consciousness from genome viewpoints where we tried to draw an analogy of neurons with electrons and photons. Lastly, we refine the quantum mechanics in terms of QCP; we all know that in Einstein's special theory of relativity, Einstein has used the postulate "Consistency of the velocity of light irrespective of all frames of reference (inertial or non-inertial frames)". In our theoretical revelation QCP can be directly applied to get a confirmatory proof of this postulate. Thus the postulate can be framed as a law.
