Frequently Asked Questions

What is the abcoulomb unit used for?
The abcoulomb is a unit of electric charge in the cgs electromagnetic system, commonly used in older electrodynamics literature and specific electromagnetic calculations.

How does the statcoulomb differ from the abcoulomb?
While the abcoulomb belongs to the cgs electromagnetic system, the statcoulomb is part of the cgs electrostatic system, used especially in Gaussian formulations of electrodynamics.

Why is the conversion factor between abC and stC so large?
Because they belong to different cgs unit systems with different formulations of electromagnetic quantities, the conversion factor is a very large number reflecting these system differences.
