Modern Lexicographic Interpretation of Psychic Vocabulary: A Standard Explanatory Dictionary

This article describes the lexicography of psychic vocabulary in a diachronic aspect. For a long time, synonymic chains were the most common way of its interpretation, examples being a more recent lexicographic invention. However, both methods are concept-oriented. Unfortunately, neither of them solved the problems of a dictionary aimed at intercultural relations. The current globalization and informatization triggered non-traditional interpretations that describe not the concept, but a prototypical situation, which is associated with it. This study introduces several principles of interpreting the psychic vocabulary. These principles relate to the language, semantics, parameters, and structure of the semanteme. The approach is based on the connection between language and perception. For instance, the psychic vocabulary encodes the reaction of the heart as an organ ( love, rage, serenity, peace, disgust ). Therefore, the psychic vocabulary is different from the abstract vocabulary (good, evil, justice, democracy ), which does not encode bodily reactions. The author believes that the seme ‘heart’ is implicitly present in the semantic structure of the psychic vocabulary. Scientific literature features the lexeme of  heart in comparative, conceptual, and metaphorical aspects, but not as an implicit component. Thus, the denotative space of the psychic vocabulary is a complex cognitive construct structured as ‘assessment / reaction of the heart / desire’, represented by the archisemes of feelings, emotions, and states. Words united by these archisemes demonstrate different valency, word-building, and pragmatic properties. In terms of the structure of the psychic polysemy, feelings and traits have the potential to develop the meaning of states, and words that denote physiological states generate figurative meanings of mental states

Impact of professional education on the development of the staff potential in a modern library

The article examines the need for professional education in the choice of the future profession, as well as the role of staff potential diagnostics in the work of a modern library, and the prospects and tasks in this sphere. The authors perform diagnostics of employees without special library education in municipal libraries of the Belgorod region, Russia. The study concludes that it is vital for library employees to get specialized education in librarianship in addition to that which they already have. In addition, libraries are advised to have a set of methods for diagnosing the potential of their staff with descriptions of these methods and options for their use

Research of the Formation of Regularities Siloxane Norbornene Derivatives by Thermal Diels-Alder Reaction

The methods of chromatography-mass spectrometry and 1H NMR-spectroscopy were used to study the reaction between dicyclopentadiene and vinyltriethoxysilane. The main reaction products are exo- and endo-isomers bicycle [2.2.1] hept-5-en-2-yl(triethoxy)silane. The overall yield of isomers is 55% of the load components. Co-products are the alkoxysilyl derivatives of dicyclopentadiene. Also the authors of the article paid attention to the problems of the time and temperature reaction, and ratios of starting components on chemical yield

Scientific School Image Development of a University Based on the System of Public Relations

The article considers the problem of educational institution promotion in the external socio-cultural environment via innovative management, in particular, the Public relations system. The solution to this problem is important in terms of fierce competition in the educational services market. The authors draw attention to the fact that scientific schools as unique associations of university science representatives can be considered as one of the effective elements of the university image policy development. They outlined the primary tasks of the university scientific school positive image development in the public relations system, PR tools are highlighted in the internal university environment and in the external sphere of the university, where the following segments are considered as the target audience: the scientific community outside the university, potential employers of university graduates, and the population represented by potential applicants and their parents

Influence of Storage Conditions on the Stability of Lactide

The objective following of the present study was to investigate the effect of different storage time and conditions on the stability of lactide. In this study the samples of lactide with different purities were stored under three various storage conditions and the compound integration was monitored for a period of 2 weeks. The storage conditions selected were (1) in the desiccator, (2) in the glove box under argon and (3) under ambient atmosphere. The purity of samples was performed on HPLC and Karl Fischer titration during all period of storage. It was shown that the initial purity of the lactide has a significant bearing on the lactide degradation

Correlation between Temperature Setting and DCS Complex Peak Energy and in ROMP of Dicyclopentadiene

Polydicyclopentadiene is one of the most interesting advanced polymers. After ring open metathesis polymerization (ROMP) by using second generation Grubbs catalyst, we obtain a crosslinked polymer with good mechanical properties. Heating is used to initiate the polymerization process as well as to obtain a higher degree of crosslinking between the polymer chains. We try to analyze the correlation between second stage heating and the degree of cross-linking by using DSC-analysis. DSC analysis shows us a complex exothermic peak after glass transition temperature and this peak area was analyzed

The structure of subduction zone of the South Caspian basin and seismicity

The relationship of strong earthquakes with layers of the Earth's crust in the Azerbaijani sector of the South Caspian Basin was analyzed based on the data of recent geophysical studies. Based on a map of earthquakes and seismic profiles the objective laws of distribution of earthquakes along the area and the depth were studied. The northern boundary of the South Caspian basin differs by high seismic activity. According to the modern depth data, it is possible to assume that the observed seismicity is associated with the processes, resulted from subduction of the consolidated crust of SCB beneath the Epihercynian platform, established by the materials of ultra-deep seismometry
