About Megacoulombs per square metre
The megacoulomb per square metre (MC/m²) equals 10⁶ C/m², encountered in pulsed-power Z-pinch target engineering and extreme plasma physics. Current-carrying surfaces in Z-pinch implosions experience charge densities approaching MC/m² transiently; magnetohydrodynamic models of solar coronal loops and active region surfaces reference MC/m² surface current sheets. 1 MC/m² = 10⁶ C/m² = 10³ kC/m².
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.
