As electrons accelerate in the electric field, they gain energy that they pass on to the atoms and molecules of the gas as they collide with them, creating a glowing plasma.

当电子在电场加速时，电极就会获得能量，并在与气体原子和分子相撞时把能量传递给它们，这样就会产生发光的等离子气体。

I don't want it to sound like I eschew oil but give natural gas and coal a pass.

我不想让它听起来像是我在回避石油却为天然气和煤块提供了通行证。

We've got to remove the heat using some kind of fluid whether it's water or gas and we've got to pass this fluid through a turbine, that turbine turning a generator and making electricity.

我们必须除去热量，使用一些液体，是否它是气水或体，我们必须，将液体经过一个涡轮，那个涡轮变成一个发电机，并制造出电。

It takes a real, permanent shock to get any real effects, and suffice to say the American political system is unlikely to ever pass a gas tax high enough to drive these kinds of changes.

FORBES: Raising Gas Taxes Wouldn't Cut Consumption, But It Still Makes Sense

At least Cheniere, like other brownfield sites that want to change direction, is able to use the pipeline infrastructure, loading facilities and other bits of the previous import terminal at Sabine Pass to export gas.

ECONOMIST: Thanks to LNG, spare gas can now be sold the world over

The electronic nose is an array of nano-scale gas sensors--the maximized surface area of the nano-particles allows the most gas to pass over them--along with pattern recognition technology that can create a digital fingerprint (or noseprint, as the case may be) of specific smells.
