Convert Gigaampere-turns to Kiloampere-turns
Convert Gigaampere-turns (GA·t) to Kiloampere-turns (kA·t) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kA·t = GA·t × 1000000
About Gigaampere-turns
The gigaampere-turn (GA·t) equals 10⁹ A·t. Relevant only in astrophysics - the equivalent MMF of a magnetar neutron star's surface field spans GA·t to TA·t; proposed inertial confinement fusion targets require GA·t-scale pulsed solenoid drives. 1 GA·t = 10⁹ A·t.
About Kiloampere-turns
The kiloampere-turn (kA·t) equals 10³ A·t. Standard engineering unit for industrial electromagnets and transformer windings - a 500-turn winding at 2 A produces 1 kA·t; MRI gradient coils are driven at tens of kA·t. 1 kA·t = 10³ A·t.
