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.

Jorge Cham, aka PHD Comics, illustrates how researchers have turned our Galaxy into a giant antenna for catching gravitational waves, spotting for the first time a background hum of such waves.
Four independent collaborations have spotted a background of gravitational waves that passes through our Galaxy, opening a new window on the astrophysical and cosmological processes that could produce such waves.
The path of a gravitational wave passing near a galaxy can be bent, producing multiple signals that could help next-generation detectors measure the expansion of the Universe.
Researchers demonstrate a fluxonium qubit that retains its quantum information for 1.43 milliseconds, 10 times longer than the previous best lifetime for this system.
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy offers strong evidence that YPtBi can exhibit topological superconductivity, a property that could be harnessed to build quantum computers.
Two experimental studies realized enhanced atomic sensing and chiral heat transport near exceptional points—singularities inherent to open, non-Hermitian systems.
