Today,Mars continues to excite -- not as the object of science fiction but of scientific study.

These--Again, the chemicals could excite the other neuron bring up the chances it will fire, or inhibit the other neuron .

再强调一遍,这些化学物质可使另一个神经元变得兴奋,提高该神经元产生神经冲动的可能性,也可抑制另一个神经的兴奋性

When we increase the potential between the 2 electrodes that we have in the tube -- we actually split the h 2 into the individual hydrogen atoms, and not only do that, but also excite the atoms.

当我们增大两个电极之间电压,我们有-我们可以把氢气2,分解成单个的氢原子，不仅这样，还能激发原子。

So, if you use a black lamp or something and you excite something up to a higher energy level and then it relaxes back down to its lower energy state, it's going to emit a new wavelength of light, which is going to be visible to you.

如果你用一个紫外灯或别的,东西把某种分子激发到,更高的能级，然后它会掉回,到低能级，它就会释放,一个新的波长的光,这个光是可见的。

So, for example, we could talk about the n equals 2 state, so that's this state here, and it's also what we could call the first excited state. So we have the ground state, and if we excite an electron into the next closest state, we're at the first excited state, or the n equals 2 state.

例如，我们可以考虑n等于2的状态，它在这里，它也被称作是第一激发态,我们有基态，如果我们把一个电子,激发到它最近邻的态,那就是第一激发态，或者n等于2的态。
