There are some good posts on YouTube explaining the differences.
One point is diesels have much higher compression which gives them a lot of force at low rpm's. A gas engine needs to gain a lot of rpm's in order to make the same kind of power. That's also why they burn through more fuel. I get nearly double the mpg from my diesel truck verses the previous gas truck.

Check out YouTube.
