Convert Milligauss to Megatesla

Input the number of milligauss you want to convert to megateslas.

1 mG (milligauss) = 0.0001 MT (megateslas)

How to Convert Milligauss to Megateslas

The milligauss and megatesla are both units of magnetic field. By definition, 1 megatesla equals exactly 10000 milligauss. This means to convert milligauss to megateslas, you divide by 10000.

Formula

megateslas = milligauss ÷ 10000

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 mG to megateslas:

1
Convert 5 mG to megateslas

We need to convert milligauss to megateslas

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 MT = 10000 mG, divide by 10000

5 ÷ 10000 = 0.0005

Answer

5 mG = 0.0005 MT

About These Units

Milligauss (mG)

A milligauss (mG) equals 0.001 gauss or 0.1 microtesla. Used for environmental magnetic field measurements. Power lines: 1-100 mG at distance. Computer monitors: 1-25 mG. Background urban level: 0.5-4 mG. EMF meters often display milligauss.

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.
