Improving Language Model-Based Zero-Shot Text-to-Speech Synthesis with Multi-Scale Acoustic Prompts

Kavli Affiliate: Dan Luo | First 5 Authors: Shun Lei, Yixuan Zhou, Liyang Chen, Dan Luo, Zhiyong Wu | Summary: Zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis aims to clone any unseen speaker’s voice without adaptation parameters. By quantizing speech waveform into discrete acoustic tokens and modeling these tokens with the language model, recent language model-based TTS models […]

A Close Look at Ly$α$ Emitters with JWST/NIRCam at $zapprox3.1$

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Yixiao Liu, Y. Sophia Dai, Stijn Wuyts, Jia-Sheng Huang, Linhua Jiang | Summary: We study 10 spectroscopically confirmed Ly$alpha$ emitters (LAEs) at $zapprox3.1$ in the UDS field, covered by JWST/NIRCam in the PRIMER program. All LAEs are detected in all NIRCam bands from F090W to F444W, corresponding […]

Reducing hardware requirements for entanglement distribution via joint hardware-protocol optimization

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Adrià Labay-Mora, Francisco Ferreira da Silva, Stephanie Wehner, , | Summary: We conduct a numerical investigation of fiber-based entanglement distribution over distances of up to 1600km using a chain of processing-node quantum repeaters. We determine minimal hardware requirements while simultaneously optimizing over protocols for entanglement generation and […]

Emergent Chern-Simons Interactions in 3+1 Dimensions

Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Marcus Stålhammar, Darya Rudneva, Thors Hans Hansson, Frank Wilczek, | Summary: Parity violating superconductors can support a low-dimension local interaction that becomes, upon condensation, a purely spatial Chern-Simons term. Solutions to the resulting generalized London equations can be obtained from solutions of the ordinary London equations with […]

TESS Spots a Super-Puff: The Remarkably Low Density of TOI-1420b

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Stephanie Yoshida, Shreyas Vissapragada, David W. Latham, Allyson Bieryla, Daniel P. Thorngren | Summary: We present the discovery of TOI-1420b, an exceptionally low-density ($rho = 0.08pm0.02$ g cm$^{-3}$) transiting planet in a $P = 6.96$ day orbit around a late G dwarf star. Using transit observations from […]

Quasi-periodic oscillations during magnetar giant flares in the strangeon star model

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Hong-Bo Li, Yacheng Kang, Zexin Hu, Lijing Shao, Cheng-Jun Xia | Summary: Soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) are widely understood as slowly rotating isolated neutron stars. Their generally large spin-down rates, high magnetic fields, and strong outburst energies render them different from ordinary pulsars. In a few giant […]
