Conversion Formula
statF = MF × 8.987551787e+17
About Megafarads
The megafarad (MF) equals 10⁶ F, a scale not reached by any discrete capacitor available today. Theoretical projections of utility-scale ultracapacitor arrays for grid energy storage discuss megafarad totals; the Earth-ionosphere spherical capacitor is estimated at about 0.9 F, so MF is well beyond any natural or engineered capacitor at present. 1 MF = 10³ kF = 10⁶ F.
About Statfarads
The statfarad (statF) is the capacitance unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to exactly 10⁵/c² F where c = 299 792 458 m/s, giving ≈ 1.1127 × 10⁻¹² F. A sphere of 1 cm radius in vacuum has capacitance exactly 1 statF in Gaussian units; Gaussian-system electrostatics texts and plasma-physics codes express capacitances in statfarads. 1 statF = 10⁵/c² F ≈ 1.113 pF.
