About These Units
Megagauss (MG)
A megagauss (MG) equals 10⁶ gauss or 100 teslas. Achieved through explosive flux compression, pulsed power systems, or Z-pinch devices. Sandia Z-machine produces ~20 MG briefly. Used in fusion research and weapons physics.
Megatesla (MT)
A megatesla (MT) equals 10⁶ teslas. Found only in astrophysical objects: neutron star surfaces 10⁸-10¹¹ T, magnetars up to 10¹¹ T. The strongest magnetic fields in the universe. Impossible to create on Earth.
