About These Units
Oersted (Oe)
The oersted (Oe) is the CGS unit of magnetic field intensity (H-field), not flux density (B-field). In vacuum/air, 1 Oe ≈ 79.58 A/m. Related to gauss through permeability: B(G) = μ × H(Oe). Named after Hans Christian Ørsted.
Tesla (T)
The tesla (T) is the SI unit of magnetic flux density (magnetic field strength). Named after Nikola Tesla. MRI machines: 1.5-7 T, neodymium magnet surface: 1-1.4 T, Earth's field: ~50 μT. One tesla = one weber per square meter = 10,000 gauss.
