Robust Live Streaming over LEO Satellite Constellations: Measurement, Analysis, and Handover-Aware Adaptation

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Hao Fang, Hao Fang, , , | Summary: Live streaming has experienced significant growth recently. Yet this rise in popularity contrasts with the reality that a substantial segment of the global population still lacks Internet access. The emergence of Low Earth orbit Satellite Networks (LSNs), such as […]

Overcoming Latency Bottlenecks in On-Device Speech Translation: A Cascaded Approach with Alignment-Based Streaming MT

Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Zeeshan Ahmed, Zeeshan Ahmed, , , | Summary: This paper tackles several challenges that arise when integrating Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Machine Translation (MT) for real-time, on-device streaming speech translation. Although state-of-the-art ASR systems based on Recurrent Neural Network Transducers (RNN-T) can perform real-time transcription, achieving […]

Probing Purely Inelastic Scalar Dark Matter Across Colliders and Gravitational Wave Observatories

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Jinhui Guo, Jinhui Guo, , , | Summary: We propose and study a purely inelastic scalar dark matter model, where two real scalars-dark matter $phi_1$ and its excited partner $phi_2$ interact with the Standard Model via a Higgs portal. After mass diagonalization, only inelastic couplings remain, allowing […]

Quantum sensing of electron beams using solid-state spins

Kavli Affiliate: Robert L. Byer | First 5 Authors: Jakob M. Grzesik, Jakob M. Grzesik, , , | Summary: Scattering experiments with energetic particles, such as free electrons, have been historically used to reveal the quantum structure of matter. However, realizing coherent interactions between free-electron beams and solid-state quantum systems has remained out of reach, […]

Scalarized neutron stars with a highly relativistic core in scalar-tensor gravity

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Peixiang Ji, Peixiang Ji, , , | Summary: Compact stars in scalar-tensor gravity have been extensively investigated, but relatively few studies have focused on highly relativistic neutron stars (NSs) with an extremely dense core region where the trace of the energy-momentum tensor reverses its sign. In this […]
