Gauss
One gauss is equal to 0.0001 teslas.
History: Named after the German mathematician and physicist Carl Friedrich Gauss.
Current use: Commonly used in small magnet measurements, earth's magnetic field studies, and sensors.
Also written as G.
Gamma
One gamma is equal to one billionth of a tesla (1.0E-9 teslas), or 1 nanotesla.
History: Frequently used in geophysics and space physics.
Current use: Standard in geomagnetism and measuring planetary magnetic fields.
Also written as γ.
