Units of Magnetic Flux Density
Description
Examples
Magnetic flux density has the dimension mass per time squared electric current. The SI derived unit of magnetic flux density is the tesla, which is defined as a volt second per square meter.
Maple knows the units of magnetic flux density listed in the following table.

An asterisk ( * ) indicates the default context, an at sign (@) indicates an abbreviation, and under the prefixes column, SI indicates that the unit takes all SI prefixes, IEC indicates that the unit takes IEC prefixes, and SI+ and SI- indicate that the unit takes only positive and negative SI prefixes, respectively. Refer to a unit in the Units package by indexing the name or symbol with the context, for example, tesla[SI] or G[standard]; or, if the context is indicated as the default, by using only the unit name or symbol, for example, tesla or G.
The units of magnetic flux density are defined as follows.
An atomic tesla is defined as 1 hartree per electron bohr squared, approximately 235051.8032 teslas.
An abtesla is defined as 0.0001 tesla and is energy-equivalent to the unit square root dyne per centimeter (dynecm).
A stattesla is defined as c100 teslas where c is the magnitude of the speed of light, and is energy-equivalent to the unit square root dyne second per square centimeter ( dyne⁢scm2 ).
A gauss is another name for the abtesla.
A gamma is defined as 1.×10−9 tesla.
