DARTree: Speculative Diffusion Decoding with Autoregressive Draft Trees
Tianyi Li, Yaxin Luo, Xinyi Shang +1
Speculative decoding losslessly accelerates autoregressive language models by verifying multiple draft tokens in parallel. Diffusion-based drafters further reduce proposal latency…
Visual Orbits of Spectroscopic Binaries with the CHARA Array. V. HD 210763 and HD 221950
Kathryn V. Lester, Josephine Singleton, Alexandra M. Twomey +16
We present the visual orbits and dynamical masses of two longer period spectroscopic binary stars, HD 210763 and HD 221950, using long baseline interferometry with the CHARA Array…
Paving the Road to the Habitable Worlds Observatory with High-Resolution Imaging I: New and Archival Speckle Observations of Potential HWO Target Stars
Zachary D. Hartman, Catherine A. Clark, Michael B. Lund +15
One of the key goals of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is to directly image about 25 potentially habitable exoplanets and determine their properties. This challenge will re…
Dynamical Architectures of S-type Transiting Planets in Binaries II: A Dichotomy in Orbital Alignment of Small Planets in Close Binary Systems
Jingwen Zhang, Daniel Huber, Michael Bottom +35
Stellar multiplicity plays a crucial role in shaping planet formation and dynamical evolution. We present a survey of 54 TESS Objects of Interest (TOIs) within 300 pc that exhibit…
Abundance Measurements of the Metal-poor M subdwarf LHS 174 Using High-resolution Optical Spectroscopy
Neda Hejazi, Sebastien Lepine, Thomas Nordlander +3
Metal-poor M subdwarfs are among the oldest stellar populations and carry valuable information about the chemical enrichment history of the Milky Way. The measurements of chemical…
Nearly a Decade of Groundbreaking Speckle Interferometry at the International Gemini Observatory
Steve B. Howell, Clara E. MartÃnez-Vázquez, Elise Furlan +8
Since its inception, speckle interferometry has revolutionized high-resolution astronomical imaging, overcoming atmospheric challenges to achieve the diffraction limits of telescop…
