About these units
Microtesla (µT)
- Definition
- A microtesla (µT) is one millionth of a tesla.
- History
- A metric sub-multiple used in geomagnetic and environmental studies.
- Current use
- Earth's magnetic field strength is approximately 25–65 µT at the surface.
Tesla (T)
- Definition
- The tesla (T) is the SI unit of magnetic flux density, equal to one weber per square meter or one volt·second per square meter.
- History
- Named after inventor Nikola Tesla, it was adopted by the CGPM in 1960.
- Current use
- MRI scanners operate at 1.5–3 T; research magnets reach tens of tesla. It is the standard unit in electromagnetism and medical imaging.
