About International table calorie per second per square centimetre
The international table calorie per second per square centimetre (cal(IT)/(s·cm²)) equals exactly 41868 W/m² (1 cal(IT) = 4.1868 J; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²). The IT variant of the high-flux CGS unit, slightly larger than the thermochemical counterpart due to the IT calorie definition. 1 cal(IT)/(s·cm²) = 41868 W/m².
About Erg per second per square centimetre
The erg per second per square centimetre (erg/(s·cm²)) equals exactly 10⁻³ W/m² in SI (1 erg = 10⁻⁷ J; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²). The CGS irradiance unit used in classical electromagnetic theory, astrophysics, and older radiation physics literature. Numerically equal to the milliwatt per square metre. 1 erg/(s·cm²) = 10⁻³ W/m² = 1 mW/m².
