Academic Achievements
- Involved in the initial discovery of dark energy; leading or participating in significant research projects such as LSST and the APOLLO collaboration.
Research Experience
- He was a member of one of the two teams that first discovered the dark energy by using supernovae to map out the history of cosmic expansion. Currently, he is heavily engaged in the construction of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), for which he was the inaugural project scientist. He founded the APOLLO collaboration that uses lunar laser ranging and the Earth-Moon-Sun system to probe for novel gravitational effects resulting from physics beyond the standard model.
Background
- An experimental physicist working at the interface between particle physics, cosmology and gravitation. His interests include experimental tests of the foundations of gravitational physics, searches for dark matter, characterizing the dark energy, and observational cosmology.
