Mean Green Physics Demonstration Team

As a traveling demonstration team of physics professors, graduate student and staff, our purpose is to interest, inform and inspire the public and perspective students of physics by presenting exciting and engaging demonstrations of physical principles.  Our goal is to leave the audience with a new understanding of certain concepts and facts about their physical world and even more importantly, create in them a sense of wonder and appreciation for physics and a new view of their participation in physics as informed citizens, as students and/ or as a career.
