Gauss Definition

A CGS unit of magnetic flux density. A field of one gauss exerts a force on a conductor, placed in the field of 0.1 dyne per ampere of current per centimetre of conductor. One gauss represents a magnetic flux of one maxwell per square centimetre of cross-section perpendicular to the field. In SI units, one gauss equals 10-4 tesla.
