description: We study the cross section σand Forward-Backward asymmetry A_{FB} in the process pp \to γ^*,Z \to \ell^+\ell^- (with \ell=e,μ) for determinations of Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) of the proton. We show that, once mapped in the invariant mass of the di-lepton final state, M({\ell\ell}), both observables, σand A_{FB}, display a statistical error which is presently competitive with that assigned to the existing PDF sets and which will rapidly become smaller than the latter as the luminosity being accumulated at Run-II of the LHC grows. This statement is applicable to both on-peak and off-peak M({\ell\ell}) regions, both (just) below and above it, thereby offering a means of constraining the quark PDFs over a sizeable (x,Q^2) range.

description: We performed plane wave density functional theory calculations to survey the potential energy surface of neutral glycine (GlyNE) and its zwitterion (GlyZW) solvated by up to four water molecules. Our previous conformation study of Gly suggests inadequacy of the commonly used local basis function sets in dealing with a high-energy isomer, such as Gly. We find the potential energy surface of GlyNE and GlyZW smoother than usually was thought and without many local minima. Two water molecules can create a local minimum around GlyZW. With three water molecules, the energy difference between GlyNE and GlyZW is reduced to a mere 27 meV with an energy barrier of 115 meV from GlyNE. GlyZW becomes energetically more stable by 122 meV when solvated by four water molecules. Water molecules become catalysts in the tautomerization and sometimes engage in a switching transfer of a proton over the water bridge. Our results are consistent with experimental findings that the effective hydration number of Gly is 3 ~ 4.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: We construct realistic supergravity models where supersymmetry breaking arises from the D-terms of an anomalous U(1) gauge symmetry broken at the Planck scale. Effective action for these theories at sub-Planck energies (including higher dimensional terms in the superpotential) are severely restricted by the U(1) symmetry and by the assumption that they arise from an underlying renormalizable theory at a higher scale. Phenomenological consequences of these models are studied. They are found to have the attractive feature that the gaugino masses, the A and B terms and the mass splittings between the like-charged squarks of the first two generations compared to their average masses can all be naturally suppressed. As a result, the electric dipole moment of the neutron as well as the flavor changing neutral current effects are predicted to be naturally small. These models also predict the value of the $μ$-term to be naturally small and have the potential to qualitatively explain the observed mass hierarchy among quarks and leptons. We then discuss examples of high scale renormalizable theories that can justify the choice of the the effective action from naturalness point of view.

description: To explore the association between polymorphisms in microRNAs (miRNAs) and the cholinesterase (ChE) activity in omethoate-exposed workers, we recruited 180 omethoate-exposed workers and 115 controls to measure their ChE activity using acetylcholine and dithio-bis-(nitrobenzoic acid) and genotype susceptible SNPs in their miRNA by time-of-flight mass spectrometry. ChE activity in the exposure group was lower than that in the control group (P < 0.001). The analysis of covariance result showed that ChE activity was lower in the (- -/- T) genotype in miR-30a rs111456995 (1.97 ± 0.47) than in the TT genotype (2.23 ± 0.59) of the exposure group (P = 0.004). Multivariate linear regression was performed to find influencing factors on ChE activity, and variables kept in the model included omethoate exposure (b = −1.094, P < 0.001), gender (b = −0.381, P < 0.001), miR-30a rs111456995 (- -/- T)(b = −0.248, P < 0.001), and drinking (b = 0.258, P =0.019). The results suggest that individuals carrying a (- -/- T) genotype in miR-30a rs111456995 were more susceptible to damage in their cholinesterase induced by omethoate exposure.

description: The splitting of single-particle energies between spin-orbit partners in nuclei is examined in the framework of different self-consistent approachs, non-relativistic as well as relativistic. Analytical expressions of spin-orbit potentials are given for various cases. Proton spin-orbit splittings are calculated along some isotopic chains (O, Ca, Sn) and they are compared with existing data. It is found that the isotopic dependence of the relativistic mean field predictions is similar to that of some Skyrme forces while the relativistic Hartree-Fock approach leads to a very different dependence due to the strong non-locality.

description: Tasks such as street mapping and security surveillance seek a route that traverses a given space to perform a function. These task functions may involve mapping the space for accurate modeling, sensing the space for unusual activity, or processing the space for object detection. With a prior map, an optimal path can be computed using a graph to represent the environment and generating the solution using known graph algorithms. However, the prior map may be inaccurate due to factors such as occlusion, outdatedness, dynamic objects, and resolution limitations. In this work, we address the NP-hard problem of optimal environmental coverage with incomplete prior map information. To utilize related algorithms in graph theory, we represent the environment as a graph. Using this representation, we present a graph coverage approach for optimal plan generation based on the Undirected Chinese Postman and Rural Postman problems. This approach produces a tractable solution through the use of low complexity algorithms in a branch-and-bound framework. Additionally, as the robot receives sensor updates during traversal of the environment, we update the graph to reflect those changes. The updated graph can be highly disconnected so computing an optimal solution can be NP-hard. To combat this, we introduce a heuristic for coverage path generation that helps maximize the connectivity of the updated graph. We evaluate our approach on a set of comparison tests in simulation.

description: We present 21-cm HI line and 13-cm continuum observations, obtained with the Australian Long Baseline Array, of the Seyfert 2 galaxy IC 5063. This object appears to be one of the best examples of Seyfert galaxies where shocks produced by the radio plasma jet influence both the radio as well as the near-infrared emission. The picture resulting from the new observations of IC 5063 confirms and completes the one derived from previous Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) lower resolution observations. A strong interaction between the radio plasma ejected from the nucleus and a molecular cloud of the ISM is occurring at the position of the western hot spot, about 0.6 kpc from the active nucleus. Because of this interaction, the gas is swept up, forming, around the radio lobe, a cocoon-like structure where the gas is moving at high speed. Due to this, part of the molecular gas is dissociated and becomes neutral or even ionised if the UV continuum produced by the shocks is hard and powerful enough. The main component detected in the VLBI HI absorption profile has a central velocity of 2786 km/s and is therefore blue-shifted 614 km/s with respect to the systemic velocity. Its peak optical depth is 5.4 %. The corresponding column density of the detected absorption, for a spin temperature of 100 K, is N_HI ~ 2x10^21 atoms cm^-2. The HI absorption properties observed in IC 5063 appear different from those observed in other Seyfert galaxies, where the HI absorption detected is attributed to undisturbed foreground gas associated with the large-scale galaxy disk.

Semiclassical theory of front propagation and front equilibration following an inhomogeneous quantum quench

description: We use a semiclassical approach to study out of equilibrium dynamics and transport in quantum systems with massive quasiparticle excitations having internal quantum numbers. In the universal limit of low energy quasiparticles, the system is described in terms of a classical gas of colored hard-core particles. Starting from an inhomogeneous initial state, in this limit we give analytic expressions for the space and time dependent spin density and spin current profiles. Depending on the initial state, the spin transport is found to be ballistic or diffusive. In the ballistic case we identify a `second front' that moves more slowly than the maximal quasiparticle velocity. Our analytic results also capture the diffusive broadening of this ballistically propagating front. To go beyond the universal limit, we study the effect of non-trivial scattering processes in the $O(3)$ non-linear sigma model by performing Monte Carlo simulations, and observe local equilibration around the second front in terms of the densities of the particle species.

description: The Eilenberg correspondence relates varieties of regular languages to pseudovarieties of finite monoids. Various modifications of this correspondence have been found with more general classes of regular languages on one hand and classes of more complex algebraic structures on the other hand. It is also possible to consider classes of automata instead of algebraic structures as a natural counterpart of classes of languages. Here we deal with the correspondence relating positive $\mathcal C$-varieties of languages to positive $\mathcal C$-varieties of ordered automata and we present various specific instances of this correspondence. These bring certain well-known results from a new perspective and also some new observations. Moreover, complexity aspects of the membership problem are discussed both in the particular examples and in a general setting.

description: The study was conducted in three sub-ecological locations in Morogoro to assess the effect of  environments on seed iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) concentration. The specific locations were Ndole, Kasanga, and Mlali, each representing distinct environmental conditions. To achieve a comprehensive assessment, 30 bean genotypes were planted using a Completely Randomized Block Design in three replications. Data on seed Fe and Zn concentration among bean genotypes were collected and analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Additionally, a GGE biplot analysis was utilized to evaluate the stability of the bean genotypes in terms of their seed Fe and Zn concentrations across environments. The use of the GGE biplot provided a visual representation of the genotype’s performance and stability, facilitating the identification of the most promising genotypes. The analysis of variance indicated that there  was no significant difference (P≤0.05) in seed Fe concentration within each location, but a significant difference was revealed across locations. Seed Zn concentration showed a highly significant difference (P≤0.001) among bean genotypes both within and across locations. The average seed Fe concentration was 165.1 mg/kg in Ndole, 129.9 mg/kg in Kasanga, and 92.4 mg/kg in Mlali. For seed Zn concentration, the averages were 28.0 mg/kg, 26.9 mg/kg, and 32.8 mg/kg for Ndole, Kasanga, and Mlali, respectively. The GGE biplot revealed that the genotypes Maini Ndefu (G2), NUA-695 (G20), NUA-590 (G14), and Selian-10 (G24) 3 exhibited high stability with high seed Fe concentration, while the genotypes Rojo (G3), Selian-10 (G24), TARI-06 (G30), and Uyole-04 (G27) exhibited high stability with high seed Zn concentration. Therefore, the best-performing genotypes identified in this study can be recommended for further research and potential release as enhanced varieties for bean farmers. These genotypes can potentially contribute to enhanced nutritional quality and agricultural productivity in the region.

description: A particle-number reprojection method is applied in the framework of the shell model Monte Carlo approach to calculate level densities for a family of nuclei using Monte Carlo sampling for a single nucleus. In particular we can also calculate level densities of odd-even and odd-odd nuclei despite a new sign problem introduced by the projection on an odd number of particles. The method is applied to level densities in the iron region using the complete $pf+g_{9/2}$-shell. The single-particle level density parameter $a$ and the backshift parameter $Δ$ are extracted by fitting the microscopically calculated level densities to the backshifted Bethe formula. We find good agreement with experimental level densities with no adjustable parameters in the microscopic calculations. The parameter $a$ is found to vary smoothly with mass and does not show odd-even effects. The calculated backshift parameter $Δ$ displays an odd-even staggering effect versus mass and is in better agreement with the experimental data than are the empirical values.

description: A massive long-lived tau neutrino in the MeV regime modifies the primordial light-element abundances predicted by big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) calculations. This effect has been used to derive limits on the tau neutrino mass. Because recently the observational situation has become somewhat confusing and, in part, intrinsically inconsistent, we reconsider the BBN limits on the tau neutrino mass. To this end we use our newly developed BBN code to calculate the primordial abundances as a function of the tau neutrino mass and of the cosmic baryon density eta. We derive concordance regions in the eta - tau-neutrino-mass - plane for several sets of alleged primordial abundances. In some cases a concordance region exists only for a nonvanishing tau neutrino mass. At the present time BBN does not provide clear evidence for or against a tau neutrino mass.

description: Abstract: "One of the interesting characteristics of multi-agent problem solving in distributed artificial intelligence (DAI) systems is that the agents are able to learn from each other, thereby facilitating the problem-solving process and enhancing the quality of the solution generated. This paper aims at studying the multi-agent learning mechanism involved in a specific group learning situation: the induction of concepts from training examples. Based on the mechanism, a distributed problem-solving approach to inductive learning, referred to as DLS, is developed and analyzed. This approach not only provides a method for solving the inductive learning problem in a distributed fashion, it also helps shed light on the essential elements contributing to multi-agent learning in DAI systems.Am empirical study is used to evaluate the efficacy of DLS for rule induction as well as its performance patterns in relation to various group parameters. The ensuing analysis helps form a model for characterizing multi-agent learning."

description: We present the supersymmetric $SU(5)$ models which provide a simple ``all order'' solution to the doublet-triplet splitting problem through the missing doublet mechanism. The crucial role is played by the anomalous $U(1)_A$ gauge symmetry and no additional discrete or global symmetries are needed. Remarkably, such models can be realized even if the 75-plet Higgs is replaced by the standard 24-plet. The same $U(1)_A$ symmetry can also guarantee an exact or approximate conservation of R parity, by suppressing the B and L violating operators to the needed level. The neutrino masses and the proton decay via $d=5$ operators are also examined. We also extend the model by incorporating $U(1)_A$ as a horizontal symmetry for explaining the fermion mass and mixing hierarchy. Interestingly, in this scheme the necessary mild violation of the troublesome $SU(5)$ degeneracy between the down quark and the charged lepton masses can be induced by certain R-parity violating operators.

The sample includes disk systems, irregular, dwarf, and blue compact galaxies. The objects span an observed FUV luminosity range from -17 to -22 magnitudes. We estimate global star formation rates by comparing the observed FUV fluxes to the predictions of stellar population models, and compare the FUV-derived astration rates to those derived from H-alpha and far-IR photometry.

description: Quantum Hall inter-plateaux transitions are physical exemplars of quantum phase transitions. Near each of these transitions, the measured electrical conductivity scales with the same correlation length and dynamical critical exponents, i.e., the critical points are superuniversal. In apparent contradiction to these experiments, prior theoretical studies of quantum Hall phase transitions within the framework of Abelian Chern-Simons theory coupled to matter found correlation length exponents that depend on the value of the quantum critical Hall conductivity. Here, we use non-Abelian bosonization and modular transformations to theoretically study the phenomenon of superuniversality. Specifically, we introduce a new effective theory that has an emergent $U(N)$ gauge symmetry with any $N > 1$ for a quantum phase transition between an integer quantum Hall state and an insulator. We then use modular transformations to generate from this theory effective descriptions for transitions between a large class of fractional quantum Hall states whose quasiparticle excitations have Abelian statistics. We find the correlation length and dynamical critical exponents are independent of the particular transition within a controlled 't Hooft large $N$ expansion, i.e., superuniversal! We argue that this superuniversality could survive away from this controlled large $N$ limit using recent duality conjectures.

description: Abstract: "In this paper we propose a distributed approach to the inductive learning problem and present an implementation of the Distributed Learning System (DLS). Our method involves breaking up the data set into different sub-samples, using an inductive learning program (in our case PLS1) for each sample, and finally synthesizing the results given by each program into a final concept by using a genetic algorithm. We show that such an approach gives significantly better results than using the whole data set on an inductive learning program. We then show how DLS can be generalized to incorporate any learning algorithm and present some of the implications of this approach to DAI (Distributed AI) systems in general and learning methodologies in particular.Complexity analysis further shows that the time complexity of DLS can be made linear with respect to the size of the problem (data set) irrespective of the time complexity of the learning algorithm it uses."

description: We study the correlation energy associated with the pair fluctuations in BCS theory. We use a schematic two-level pairing model and discuss the behavior of the correlation energy across shell closures, including the even-odd differences. It is shown that the random phase approximation (RPA) to the ground state energy reproduces the exact solutions quite well both in the normal fluid and in the superfluid phases. In marked contrast, other methods to improve the BCS energies such as Lipkin-Nogami method, only work when the strength of a pairing interaction is large. We thus conclude that the RPA approach is better for a systematic theory of nuclear binding energies.

We consider a model where a `seed' protobinary system forms, via fragmentation, within a collapsing molecular cloud core and evolves to its final mass by accreting material from an infalling gaseous envelope. This accretion alters the mass ratio and orbit of the binary, and is largely responsible for forming the circumstellar and/or circumbinary discs. Given this model for binary formation, we predict the properties of binary systems and how they depend on the initial conditions within the molecular cloud core. We predict that there should be a continuous trend such that closer binaries are more likely to have equal mass components and are more likely to have circumbinary discs than wider systems. Comparing our results to observations, we find that the observed mass-ratio distributions of binaries and the frequency of circumbinary discs as a function of separation are most easily reproduced if the progenitor molecular cloud cores have radial density profiles between uniform and 1/r (e.g. Gaussian) with near uniform-rotation. This is in good agreement with the observed properties of pre-stellar cores. Conversely, we find that the observed properties of binaries cannot be reproduced if the cloud cores are in solid-body rotation and have initial density profiles which are strongly centrally condensed. Finally, in agreement with the radial-velocity searches for extra-solar planets, we find that it is very difficult to form a brown dwarf companion to a solar-type star with a separation < 10 AU, but that the frequency of brown dwarf companions should increase with larger separations or lower mass primaries.

description: We analyze diffractive deep inelastic scattering within perturbative QCD by studying lepton scattering on a heavy quark target. Simple explicit expressions are derived in impact parameter space for the photon wave function and the scattering cross sections corresponding to single and double Coulomb gluon exchange. At limited momentum transfers to the target, the results agree with the general features of the ``aligned jet model''. The color--singlet exchange cross section receives a leading twist contribution only from the aligned jet region, where the transverse size of the photon wave function remains finite in the Bjorken scaling limit. In contrast to inclusive DIS, in diffractive events there is no leading twist contribution to $σ_L/σ_T$ from the lowest order $(q\bar q)$ photon Fock state, and the cross section for heavy quarks is power suppressed in the quark mass. There are also important contributions with large momentum transfer to the target, which corresponds to events having high transverse momentum production in both the projectile and target rapidity regions, separated by a rapidity gap.

description: Microscopic diffusion anisotropy (μA) has been recently gaining increasing attention for its ability to decouple the average compartment anisotropy from orientation dispersion. Advanced diffusion MRI sequences, such as double diffusion encoding (DDE) and double oscillating diffusion encoding (DODE) have been used for mapping μA. However, the time-dependence of μA has not been investigated insofar, and furthermore, the accuracy of μA estimation vis-à-vis different b-values was not assessed. Here, we investigate both these concepts using theory, simulation, and experiments in the mouse brain. In the first part, simulations and experimental results show that the conventional estimation of microscopic anisotropy from the difference of D(O)DE sequences with parallel and orthogonal gradient directions yields values that highly depend on the choice of b-value. To mitigate this undesirable bias, we propose a multi-shell approach that harnesses a polynomial fit of the signal difference up to third order terms in b-value. In simulations, this approach yields more accurate μA metrics, which are similar to the ground truth values. The second part of this work uses the proposed multi-shell method to estimate the time/frequency dependence of μA. The data shows either an increase or no change in μA with frequency depending on the region of interest, both in white and gray matter. When comparing the experimental results with simulations, it emerges that simple geometric models such as infinite cylinders with either negligible or finite radii cannot replicate the measured trend, and more complex models, which, for example, incorporate structure along the fibre direction are required. Thus, measuring the time dependence of microscopic anisotropy can provide valuable information for characterizing tissue microstructure.

description: In this paper, we present provably-good distributed task allocation (assignment) algorithms for a heterogeneous multi-robot system where the tasks form disjoint groups and there are constraints on the number of tasks a robot can do (both within the overall mission and within each task group). Our problem is motivated by applications where multiple robots with heterogeneous capabilities have to work together to accomplish tasks. Thus, for our purposes, a task group is a compound task composed of more than one atomic tasks where one robot is required for each atomic task. Since robots have limited battery life, we assume that the number of (atomic) tasks that a robot can do within a mission has an upper bound. Furthermore, each robot has a constraint on the number of tasks it can do from each group (this models the fact that multiple robots may be needed to simultaneously perform the atomic tasks that make up the compound task). Each robot obtains a payoff (or incurs a cost) for each task and the overall objective for task allocation is to maximize the total payoff (or minimize the total cost) of all the robots. In general, existing (centralized or distributed) algorithms for task allocation either assume that (atomic) tasks are independent, or do not provide performance guarantee for the situation where task constraints exist. We show that our problem can be solved in polynomial time by a centralized algorithm by reducing it to a minimum cost network flow problem. We then present a decentralized algorithm (that extends the auction algorithm of Bertsekas for linear assignment problems [1]) to provide an almost optimal solution. We prove that our solution is within a factor of O(nte ) of the optimal solution, where nt is the total number of tasks and e is a parameter that we choose (the guarantees are the same as that of the original auction algorithm for unconstrained tasks). The decentralized algorithm assumes a shared memory model of computation that may be unrealistic for many multi-robot deployments. Therefore, we show that by using a maximum consensus algorithm along with our algorithm, we can design a totally distributed algorithm for task allocation with group constraints. The key aspect of our distributed algorithm is that the overall objective is (nearly) maximized by each robot maximizing its own objective iteratively (using a modified payoff function based on an auxiliary variable, called price of a task). Our algorithm is polynomial in the number of tasks as well as the number of robots.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The Gamow-Teller resonances are discussed in the context of a self-consistent RPA, based on the relativistic mean field theory. We inquire on the possibility of substituting the phenomenological Landau-Migdal force by a microscopic nucleon-nucleon interaction generated from the rho-nucleon tensor coupling. The effect of this coupling turns out to be very small when the short range correlations are not taken into account, but too large when these correlations are simulated by the simple extraction of the contact terms from the resulting nucleon-nucleon interaction.

description: ObjectiveProspective studies on relationships between hedonic hunger and BMI (Body Mass Index) during weight management are lacking. This study examined if hedonic hunger reduced during a behavioural weight management programme, and if hedonic hunger predicted future BMI.MethodsParticipants were 594 community-dwelling, UK-based adults(396 female; age 56.43 years, s.d. = 12.50, range 20-83 years); 490 participants (82.5%) had obesity. Participants were randomised to a 12- or 52-week behavioural weight management intervention (WW12 or WW52, respectively) or a brief self-help intervention (BI). Relationships between hedonic hunger and BMI over 24 months (baseline, 3, 12, 24 months) were analysed using an autoregressive cross-lagged model.ResultsHedonic hunger scores decreased from 2.71 (s.d. = .91) at baseline to 2.41 (s.d. = .88) at 3 months (p < .001, CI .22 to .38), remained reduced to 24 months, and were not affected by intervention arm at any time point (p's>.05). Baseline hedonic hunger scores predicted 3-month scores (B = .76, SE = .03, p < .001, CI .71 to .82), 3-month scores predicted 12-month scores (B = .76, SE = .03, p < .001 CI .72 to .80), and 12-month scores predicted 24-month scores (B = .72, SE = .03, p < .001, CI .64 to .77). Higher hedonic hunger at 3 months predicted higher BMI at 12 months (B = .04, SE = .02, p = .03, CI .01 to .07) but not at 24 months (p>.05). BMI at 12 months was lower in WW52 30.87kg/m2, s.d. = 5.02) than WW12 (32.12 kg/m2, s.d. = 5.58, p = .02, CI .16 to 2.34) and BI (32.74 kg/m2, s.d. = 4.15, p = .01, CI .30 to 3.45). BMI was not affected by intervention at any other time point (p's>.05).ConclusionHedonic hunger reduced during weight management irrespective of intervention. Early reductions in hedonic hunger appear to be associated with lower BMI in the medium-term. Identifying ways to reduce hedonic hunger during weight loss could aid weight management for some people.
