Convert Gammas to Megateslas
Convert Gammas (γ) to Megateslas (MT) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
MT = γ × 1.000000000e-15
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 Megateslas
The megatesla (MT) equals 10⁶ T. Relevant only in astrophysics - neutron star (magnetar) surface fields reach 10⁸-10¹¹ T (0.1-100 000 MT); laser-driven implosion experiments have produced fields approaching 0.001 MT transiently. 1 MT = 10⁶ T = 10¹⁰ G.
