Convert Nanotesla to Gamma

Type the number of nanoteslas that you wish to convert to gammas.

1 nT (nanoteslas) = 1 γ (gammas)

How to Convert Nanoteslas to Gammas

The nanotesla and gamma are both units of magnetic field. By definition, 1 nanotesla equals exactly 1 gammas. This means to convert nanoteslas to gammas, you multiply by 1.

Formula

gammas = nanoteslas × 1

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 nT to gammas:

1
Convert 5 nT to gammas

We need to convert nanoteslas to gammas

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 nT = 1 γ, multiply by 1

5 × 1 = 5

Answer

5 nT = 5 γ

About These Units

Nanotesla (nT)

A nanotesla (nT) equals 10⁻⁹ teslas, identical to the gamma unit. Used in geophysics, space physics, and magnetometry. Earth's field: 25,000-65,000 nT. Geomagnetic storms cause variations of 100-1000 nT. Standard unit for geomagnetic surveys.

Gamma (γ)

The gamma (γ) equals exactly 1 nanotesla (10⁻⁹ T). Traditional unit in geophysics and aeromagnetic surveys. Earth's field: 25,000-65,000 γ. Magnetic anomalies for mineral exploration measured in gammas. Largely replaced by nanotesla in modern usage.
