About Gigacoulombs per square metre
The gigacoulomb per square metre (GC/m²) equals 10⁹ C/m², a value with no engineering realisation, used only in astrophysical and theoretical plasma models. Magnetar magnetosphere charge sheet densities, pulsar polar cap surface charge, and theoretical cosmic string surface charge are described at GC/m² scales in research literature. 1 GC/m² = 10⁹ C/m² = 10³ MC/m².
About Statcoulombs per square centimetre
The statcoulomb per square centimetre (statC/cm²) is the surface charge density unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to 10³/c C/m² where c = 299 792 458 m/s, giving ≈ 3.336 × 10⁻⁶ C/m². In Gaussian units Gauss's law reads E = 4πσ (no ε₀ factor); 1 statC/cm² produces a surface field of 4π statV/cm. 1 statC/cm² ≈ 3.336 µC/m².
