Nanotesla
One nanotesla is equal to one billionth of a tesla (1e-9 teslas).
History: Nanotesla values are common in geomagnetism, where gamma is an older equivalent name.
Current use: Used for geomagnetic surveys, space weather, magnetometers, and weak magnetic field measurements.
Also written as nT.
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.
