About Gigaamperes per square metre
The gigaampere per square metre (GA/m²) equals 10⁹ A/m², the extreme scale for thermonuclear plasmas and ultra-fast pulsed discharges. Current density in the compressed plasma of a z-pinch at peak compression is 1-100 GA/m²; field-emission current density from a sharp metallic tip at the Fowler-Nordheim threshold is ≈1-10 GA/m². 1 GA/m² = 10⁹ A/m² = 10³ MA/m².
About Statamperes per square centimetre
The statampere per square centimetre (statA/cm²) is the current density unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to 1000/c A/m² where c = 299 792 458 m/s, giving ≈3.336 × 10⁻⁶ A/m². In Gaussian electrodynamics the statA/cm² is the natural current density when fields are in statV/cm; it appears in plasma physics texts using Gaussian units. 1 statA/cm² ≈ 3.336 µA/m².
