Convert Millicoulombs per metre to Gigacoulombs per metre
Convert Millicoulombs per metre (mC/m) to Gigacoulombs per metre (GC/m) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
GC/m = mC/m × 1.000000000e-12
About Millicoulombs per metre
The millicoulomb per metre (mC/m) equals 10⁻³ C/m, the scale for charge on highly loaded triboelectric surfaces, electret films, and return-stroke lightning channel segments. Industrial electret microphone films carry surface charge densities of 0.1-10 mC/m², which corresponds to similar values per metre along a thin strip; return-stroke lightning channel charge is 1-10 mC/m distributed along the leader. 1 mC/m = 10⁻³ C/m = 10³ µC/m.
About Gigacoulombs per metre
The gigacoulomb per metre (GC/m) equals 10⁹ C/m, a value with no engineering realisation but used in astrophysical and cosmological electromagnetic models. Magnetar magnetic fields, pulsar magnetosphere current sheet charge densities, and theoretical cosmic string electromagnetic scenarios are described at GC/m scales in research literature. 1 GC/m = 10⁹ C/m = 10³ MC/m.
