About
Anthony Kremin is a key figure in the experimental cosmology driving the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) project, specializing in large-scale structure, survey operations, and instrumental calibration. His major contributions center on enabling precise measurements of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs)—a critical probe of dark energy. Kremin co-authored the first detection of the BAO signal from early DESI data (37 citations), demonstrating the instrument's power to map the universe's expansion history. He has also led foundational work on DESI's fiber assignment system, developing alternate realizations to correct for selection biases in clustering measurements (25 citations) and characterizing incompleteness effects for the DR1 analysis (20 citations). His instrumental expertise is showcased in the overview of DESI's 5000-fiber system (57 citations) and the astrometric calibration of its focal plane. With over 140 combined citations across his most-cited papers, Kremin’s work directly supports DESI’s mission to create the largest 3D map of the universe and unravel the nature of dark energy, making him a vital contributor to the next generation of cosmological surveys.
