According to Wikipedia, < https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graviton_(disambiguation), >
"A graviton is a hypothetical elementary particle that transmits the force of gravity."
How can this be made meaningful to students in an introductory physics course ?

That's an article by Steve Carlip, hosted on John Baez's excellent
site: http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/ <http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/>
The physics FAQ is at: http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/ <http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/>
Here’s an article that is somewhat duplicative of JD’s exposition:
http://www.tapir.caltech.edu/~teviet/Waves/gwave.html
And here’s a Q & A that appears (to me) to be accurate:

bc discovers he’s v. late, at least 23 years. (Didn’t subscribe to "Physics Today”?)
