How to convert milliteslas to gauss
One tesla equals one weber per square meter. A gauss is 10⁻⁴ tesla. Do not equate gauss with oersted in arbitrary media; those units describe B and H respectively.
Use x for the value in mT, b for the intermediate value in T, and y for the result in G.
G = mT × 0.001 ÷ 0.0001
Worked examples
10 mT ≈ 100 G
Step 1: (10 × 0.001) ≈ 0.01 T.
Step 2: 0.01 ÷ 0.0001 ≈ 100 G.20 mT ≈ 200 G
Step 1: (20 × 0.001) ≈ 0.02 T.
Step 2: 0.02 ÷ 0.0001 ≈ 200 G.
Results are rounded to 12 significant digits. Converting units does not increase the precision of the original measurement. Very large or small values outside JavaScript’s finite numeric range are rejected.
About Milliteslas
Milliteslas (mT) measures magnetic flux density under the conventions above. The base value in T is (x × 0.001), where x is the numerical value in mT. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
About Gauss
Gauss (G) measures magnetic flux density under the conventions above. The base value in T is (x × 0.0001), where x is the numerical value in G. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
