Word-formation encompasses a wide range of processes, among which we find derivation and compounding, two processes yielding productive patterns which enable the speaker to understand and to coin new lexemes. This article draws a distinction between two types of constituents (suffixes, combining forms, splinters, affixoids, etc.) on the one hand and word-formation processes (derivation, compounding, blending, etc.) on the other hand but also shows that a given constituent can appear in different word-formation processes. First, it describes prototypical derivation and compounding in terms of word-formation processes and of their constituents: Prototypical derivation involves a base lexeme, that is, a free lexical elements belonging to a major part-of-speech category (noun, verb, or adjective) and, very often, an affix (e.g., Fr. laverV ‘to wash’ > lavableA ‘washable’), while prototypical compounding involves two lexemes (e.g., Eng. rainN + fallV > rainfallN). The description of these prototypical phenomena provides a starting point for the description of other types of constituents and word-formation processes. There are indeed at least two phenomena which do not meet this description, namely, combining forms (henceforth CFs) and affixoids, and which therefore pose an interesting challenge to linguistic description, be it synchronic or diachronic. The distinction between combining forms and affixoids is not easy to establish and the definitions are often confusing, but productivity is a good criterion to distinguish them from each other, even if it does not answer all the questions raised by bound forms. In the literature, the notions of CF and affixoid are not unanimously agreed upon, especially that of affixoid. Yet this article stresses that they enable us to highlight, and even conceptualize, the gradual nature of linguistic phenomena, whether from a synchronic or a diachronic point of view.

Resumen: Las firmas de los Tratados de Madrid (1750) y San Ildefonso (1777) entre las Coronas española y portuguesa fueron reflejo del interés por establecer una forma de ejercicio del poder que evitara la instalación de otras potencias en las áreas coloniales bajo dominio de ambas metrópolis. Estos tratados y la cartografía producida por las partidas demarcadoras fueron recuperadas por los Estados de Argentina y Brasil en el momento de su constitución para definir sus límites internacionales y para dirimir conflictos que surgieron en los procesos de demarcación hacia finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX. En este artículo nos interesa identificar las repercusiones de dichos tratados en la literatura producida en las Ciencias Sociales en Argentina y Brasil en torno a la geografía histórica del Río de la Plata. En particular, deseamos comprender qué visiones de la frontera y el territorio ofrecen los textos relevados. Dentro de este marco, entendemos que la identificación de estas perspectivas puede contribuir, por un lado, a entender las implicancias socio-territoriales de la firma de los tratados en los procesos de formación de los Estados Nacionales y, por el otro, a reconocer las potencialidades y limitaciones de dichos estudios para analizar las dinámicas que tuvieron lugar en el Río de la Plata hacia mediados del siglo XVIII.Palabras claves: Tratados de Madrid y San Ildefonso, Estado-Nación, Argentina, Brasil, Frontera, Territorio.Abstract: The signing of the Treaties of Madrid (1750) and San Ildefonso (1777) between the Spanish and Portuguese Crowns reflects an interest in establishing power without installing potentates in colonial areas under the control of the two Empires. The treaties and the cartography produced by the demarcating parties were adopted by the States of Argentina and Brazil to define their international boundaries and to resolve any conflict arising during the demarcation processes in the late 19th/early 20th century. This article seeks to identify the echoes of these treaties in the literature produced in the social sciences in Argentina and Brazil around the historical geography of the River Plate, with the aim of understanding the conceptions of boundary and territory that underlie these perspectives. Within this framework, we consider that the identification of these visions can help understand, on the one hand, the socio-territorial implications of the signing of the treaties in the formation processes of the National States, and on the other hand, the potentialities and limitations of these studies in analysing the dynamics that took place in the River Plate towards the middle of the 18th century.Key words: Treaties of Madrid and San Ildefonso, nation-state, Argentina, Brazil, frontier, territory.

A new language and term use new words that we can relate to the one of linguistics branches of the morphological aspect namely word formation process. The process of word formation in creation of new English words is called derivation. One of the language phenomenon is in the practice of language used in online news specifically Jakarta Post Website. The Jakarta Post is one of the daily Indonesian has language English. The Jakarta post presented with various of news, such as sport, entertainment, education, etc. The purpose of this study is identifying the most common type of derivation words that is used in the headline of ten education articles in Jakarta Post Website in October 2015 until April 2016. This study uses qualitative method. The result show that the most common of derivation words that is used in headline ten article educations in Jakarta Post Website in October 2015 until April 2016 is noun derivations. Keywords: derivation, Jakarta Post.

The article attempts to conduct a balanced analysis of the impact of modern biomedical technologies on human corporeality from the perspective of its formation processes. On the one hand, there is a panic mood about the loss of the human proper in man due to the rapid development of biomedical technolo-gies and the construction of human corporeality using them, and as a result, the adoption of measures to prevent radical modification of such corporeality. On the other hand, there are also excessive expecta-tions for modern biomedical technologies that are ultimately, as supposed, to be able to make humans immortal. The task of the author of the article is to show that the scientists involved in biomedical are rather cautious about radical changes in human body, seeing the real risks from such intervention and the lack of clarity about the long-term consequences. At the same time, any interference with a person 's body must be based on respect for and observance of human rights and human dignity.

The first question to be answered, in seeking coordinate systems for geodynamics, is: what is geodynamics? The answer is, of course, that geodynamics is that part of geophysics which is concerned with movements of the Earth, as opposed to geostatics which is the physics of the stationary Earth. But as far as we know, there is no stationary Earth – epur sic monere. So geodynamics is actually coextensive with geophysics, and coordinate systems suitable for the one should be suitable for the other. At the present time, there are not many coordinate systems, if any, that can be identified with a static Earth. Certainly the only coordinate of aeronomic (atmospheric) interest is the height, and this is usually either as geodynamic height or as pressure. In oceanology, the most important coordinate is depth, and this, like heights in the atmosphere, is expressed as metric depth from mean sea level, as geodynamic depth, or as pressure. Only for the earth do we find “static” systems in use, ana even here there is real question as to whether the systems are dynamic or static. So it would seem that our answer to the question, of what kind, of coordinate systems are we seeking, must be that we are looking for the same systems as are used in geophysics, and these systems are dynamic in nature already – that is, their definition involvestime.

Recently we have investigated the phase equilibria and antiphase domain structures of Fe-Al alloys containing from 18 to 50 at.% Al by transmission electron microscopy and Mössbauer techniques. This study has revealed that none of the published phase diagrams are correct, although the one proposed by Rimlinger agrees most closely with our results to be published separately. In this paper observations by transmission electron microscopy relating to the nucleation of disorder in Fe-24% Al will be described. Figure 1 shows the structure after heating this alloy to 776.6°C and quenching. The white areas are B2 micro-domains corresponding to regions of disorder which form at the annealing temperature and re-order during the quench. By examining specimens heated in a temperature gradient of 2°C/cm it is possible to determine the effect of temperature on the disordering reaction very precisely. It was found that disorder begins at existing antiphase domain boundaries but that at a slightly higher temperature (1°C) it also occurs by homogeneous nucleation within the domains. A small (∼ .01°C) further increase in temperature caused these micro-domains to completely fill the specimen.

In the last decade and a half, thin film research, particularly research into problems associated with epitaxy, has developed from a simple empirical process of determining the conditions for epitaxy into a complex analytical and experimental study of the nucleation and growth process on the one hand and a technology of very great importance on the other. During this period the thin films group of the University of Chile has studied the epitaxy of metals on metal and insulating substrates. The development of the group, one of the first research groups in physics to be established in the country, has parallelled the increasing complexity of the field.The elaborate techniques and equipment now needed for research into thin films may be illustrated by considering the plant and facilities of this group as characteristic of a good system for the controlled deposition and study of thin films.

It has been recognized since the earliest days of crystal growth that kinetic processes of all Kinds control the nature of the growth. As the technology of crystal growth has become ever more refined, with the advent of such atomistic processes as molecular beam epitaxy, chemical vapor deposition, sputter deposition, and plasma enhanced techniques for the creation of “crystals” as little as one or a few atomic layers thick, multilayer structures, and novel materials combinations, the need to understand the mechanisms controlling the growth process is becoming more critical. Unfortunately, available techniques have not lent themselves well to obtaining a truly microscopic picture of such processes. Because of its atomic resolution on the one hand, and the achievable wide field of view on the other (of the order of micrometers) scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) gives us this opportunity. In this talk, we briefly review the types of growth kinetics measurements that can be made using STM. The use of STM for studies of kinetics is one of the more recent applications of what is itself still a very young field.

Numerous phenomenological descriptions of the mechanical behavior of composite materials have been developed. There is now an urgent need to study and interpret deformation behavior, load transfer, and strain distribution, in terms of micromechanisms at the atomic level. One approach is to characterize dislocation substructure resulting from specific test conditions by the various techniques of transmission electron microscopy. The present paper describes a technique for the preparation of electron transparent composites of aluminum-stainless steel, such that examination of the matrix-fiber (wire), or interfacial region is possible. Dislocation substructures are currently under examination following tensile, compressive, and creep loading. The technique complements and extends the one other study in this area by Hancock.The composite examined was hot-pressed (argon atmosphere) 99.99% aluminum reinforced with 15% volume fraction stainless steel wire (0.006″ dia.).Foils were prepared so that the stainless steel wires run longitudinally in the plane of the specimen i.e. the electron beam is perpendicular to the axes of the wires. The initial step involves cutting slices ∼0.040″ in thickness on a diamond slitting wheel.
