Abstract
The minimal degeneration singularities in the affine Grassmannians of simple simply laced algebraic groups are determined to be either Kleinian singularities of type A or closures of minimal nilpotent orbits. The singularities for non-simply laced types are studied by intersection cohomology and equivariant Chow group methods.
