Magnetic Field Converter

Convert magnetic flux density between tesla, millitesla, microtesla and gauss.

Magnetic field strength (flux density) is measured in tesla in SI and gauss in the older CGS system that magnet suppliers still use widely. The Earth's field is about half a gauss (50 microtesla); an MRI machine runs a few tesla; a fridge magnet is around 100 gauss. With 1 tesla equal to 10,000 gauss, the two scales look wildly different for the same field.

This converter moves any flux density between tesla, millitesla, microtesla and gauss instantly, bridging the SI and CGS conventions.
