About Statcoulombs per centimetre
The statcoulomb per centimetre (statC/cm) is the linear charge density unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to 10/c C/m where c = 299 792 458 m/s, giving exactly 10/299 792 458 C/m ≈ 3.336 × 10⁻⁸ C/m. It falls between nC/m and µC/m in the SI scale; the electric field of a line charge is written E = 2λ/r in Gaussian units without a 4πε₀ factor. 1 statC/cm ≈ 33.356 nC/m.
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.
