Unit Story
Gauss
The gauss is a CGS magnetic flux density unit still seen in magnet, geology, and older technical references. One gauss equals exactly 1e-4 tesla.
Tesla
The tesla is the SI unit of magnetic flux density. It describes magnetic field per area, so it is different from total magnetic flux in webers.
How This Conversion Works
Gauss and tesla are both used for magnetic flux density conversions. This page converts 1 gauss into 0.0001 tesla using the formula shown below.
Use this result for quick checks, comparisons, and everyday reference. For work that depends on exact precision, review the rounding setting and the assumption note before using the number.
The precision controls let you switch between a shorter result, the standard readable result, and scientific notation when the value is very large or very small.
Unit Notes
- 1 gauss (gauss) equals 0.0001 tesla.
- tesla (tesla) is the base unit used for magnetic flux density conversions.

- Assumption
- Magnetic flux density conversions use exact SI prefix relationships. One gauss equals exactly 1e-4 tesla, one gamma equals one nanotesla, and one tesla equals one weber per square meter. Field strength at a real point depends on geometry, distance, materials, shielding, and measurement conditions.
