Convert Femtoteslas to Picoteslas
Convert Femtoteslas (fT) to Picoteslas (pT) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
pT = fT × 0.001
About Femtoteslas
The femtotesla (fT) equals 10⁻¹⁵ T. The standard field scale for biomagnetic measurements: neural signals in magnetoencephalography (MEG) produce cortical fields of 10-1000 fT, while cardiac magnetic fields (magnetocardiography, MCG) are around 10-100 pT. SQUID sensors routinely measure in the fT range. 1 fT = 10⁻¹⁵ T.
About Picoteslas
The picotesla (pT) equals 10⁻¹² T. Used in magnetocardiography (MCG) and magnetic anomaly detection (MAD) - the heart's magnetic field peaks at around 50-100 pT; a submerged ferromagnetic submarine distorts Earth's field by a few pT at detection range. 1 pT = 10⁻¹² T.
