About Gammas

The gamma (γ) equals exactly 1 nT = 10⁻⁹ T. A legacy CGS-adjacent unit adopted in geophysics and aeromagnetic surveying before SI. Total-field aeromagnetic surveys measure local anomalies of a few γ to thousands of γ over mineral deposits. 1 γ = 1 nT = 10⁻⁹ T.

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.
