My first entry

I felt as though I should join the "blogging" community as I continue my research as a physics student, as I believe I am approaching something colossal.

For those of you who may be reading this and aren't aware, my name is Dirk Polder. I am a physicist from the Netherlands, and have followed in the footsteps of my father, and grandfather (Dirk Polder himself.)

I will post a little more about my research, my findings and my hopeful outcomes -- however I am in talks with some large organizations about taking my developments to the next level. As much as I would love to share my research, I am bind by my pining of funding for further development, and as such have signed an agreement of secrecy in relation to my research in order to protect it.

I can, however, tell you that in honor of my grandfather, and his researchers, I am researching a number of things in relation to the Casimir effect. Foremost of this is something my grandfather had researched, but had not published, simply called DHIM/MEMS (Direct Human Interface Model via Microelectromechanical Systems.)

Other areas of interest for my research are:

• The application of MEMS
• Pure mathematics
• Low temperature physics
• Magnetism
• Thermodynamics of Superconductors
• Human application of the Casimir effect

As mentioned, I will post more at a later date.
