When an electric current flows through the wire, these electrons also drift slowly along the wire, passing on from atom to atom.

当电流通过电线时，这些的电子也沿着导线缓缓地从一个原子流过另一个原子。

Conduction of electricity in solids consists of the drift of electrons that have been temporarily detached from the parent atoms.

固体中电的传导是暂时离开母原子的电子的漂移所致。

The hot electrons can reduce the growth rate of the interchange mode and drift wave driven by the plasma, and suppress the anomalous plasma transport caused by the drift wave.

热电子能降低等离子体交换模和漂移波的增长率，减少漂移波引起的等离子体反常输运损失。

And those electrons drift up into a gas layer, and when they hit the gas and you get another flash of light.
