Convert Tesla to Gamma
Enter the number of teslas that you want to convert to gammas.
How to Convert Teslas to Gammas
The tesla and gamma are both units of magnetic field. By definition, 1 tesla equals exactly 1000000000 gammas. This means to convert teslas to gammas, you multiply by 1000000000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 T to gammas:
We need to convert teslas to gammas
Since 1 T = 1000000000 γ, multiply by 1000000000
5 × 1000000000 = 5000000000
5 T = 5000000000 γ

About These Units
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.
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.
