PHY 110. General Physics. 4CRS. 3 HRS. 2 LAB HRS.
This course serves as an introduction to Physics, especially for students who are not science-oriented. A selected number of basic physical ideas are carefully examined and interpreted non-mathematically. The relevance of the scientist and his/her work to the lives of non-scientists is continually examined.

A quantum phase of matter detected in an iron-based superconductor could host Majorana zero modes—quasiparticles that may serve as building blocks for future quantum computers.
The Heavy Flavor Averaging Group has released new world averages for properties of "heavy-flavor" particle decays—an update aimed at improving our understanding of flavor physics.
The whiskers of some marine mammals are sensitive to the turbulent wakes left by fish. A new experiment investigates how this process works over different distances.
Observations deliver evidence of an exotic "sixth-order" electromagnetic transition in the gamma-ray emission of an iron isotope, a finding that could provide new ways to test nuclear models.
Phase separation within cells creates droplets whose chemical activity leads to surprising mobility that serves cellular function and hints at the origin of life.

A new algorithm can organize hundreds of atoms into pristine patterns—including a honeycomb lattice, a fractal called a Sierpiński triangle, and a lion's head.
Researchers have developed a method for measuring the strength of certain ion–electron interactions in water, with initial tests throwing up unexpected results.
