What Is This Tool?

This tool helps convert electric field strength values from abvolt per centimeter (abV/cm), a CGS-EMU unit, to statvolt per centimeter (stV/cm), a CGS-ESU/Gaussian unit. It is useful for relating values across different CGS unit systems often found in older scientific literature and theoretical calculations.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the electric field value in abvolt per centimeter (abV/cm)
  • Select abvolt/centimeter as the input unit and statvolt/centimeter as the output unit
  • Click convert to obtain the equivalent electric field strength in statvolt per centimeter (stV/cm)

Key Features

  • Converts electric field strength between two CGS systems: abvolt/cm to statvolt/cm
  • Utilizes an exact scientific conversion factor for accurate results
  • Supports interpretation of historical and theoretical electromagnetic data
  • Browser-based tool requiring no installation

Examples

  • 1 abV/cm converts to 3.335646048e-11 stV/cm
  • 10 abV/cm converts to 3.335646048e-10 stV/cm

Common Use Cases

  • Comparing electric field measurements in older CGS-EMU and CGS-ESU sources
  • Translating field strengths reported in historical electromagnetic literature into compatible units for theoretical analysis
  • Supporting plasma physics or astrophysics research using CGS units
  • Converting CGS-based electric field data into SI units for modern comparisons

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure you understand which CGS system your data originates from before converting
  • Use this tool primarily for interpreting legacy or theoretical data due to the units' obsolescence
  • Take care with numerical precision given the very small conversion factor
  • Cross-check converted values when integrating with SI unit results

Limitations

  • Both abvolt/centimeter and statvolt/centimeter are outdated units rarely used in current practice
  • Conversion involves extremely small numerical factors, requiring attention to precision
  • Units represent different CGS frameworks, so contextual understanding is vital to avoid misinterpretation

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert between abvolt/cm and statvolt/cm?
Because these units belong to different CGS systems, converting between them helps unify electric field strength values reported in older electromagnetic and electrostatic literatures.

Are abvolt/cm and statvolt/cm still commonly used?
No, both units are largely obsolete today; the SI unit volt per meter (V/m) is standard in modern practice.

What precautions should I take when converting these units?
Due to the very small conversion factor and different CGS definitions, ensure numerical precision and understand the physical context to avoid misinterpretation.

Key Terminology

Abvolt/centimeter [abV/cm]
A CGS-EMU unit of electric field strength defined as one abvolt per centimeter, now mostly obsolete.
Statvolt/centimeter [stV/cm]
A CGS-ESU/Gaussian unit of electric field strength defined as one statvolt per centimeter, used in theoretical and astrophysical contexts.
CGS Systems
Centimetre–gram–second systems of units with variants such as electromagnetic (EMU) and electrostatic (ESU/Gaussian) used historically.
