What is the stathenry unit?

The stathenry (stH) is a cgs‑electrostatic unit of inductance where 1 stH induces 1 statvolt electromotive force from a current change of 1 statampere per second.

Why convert stathenry to kilohenry?

Converting to kilohenry allows interpreting large inductance values in a modern SI-based unit, making them easier to compare and apply in practical engineering contexts.

In which fields is this conversion especially relevant?

It is particularly used in theoretical physics, plasma physics, astrophysics, superconducting magnet design, magnetic energy storage, and specialized power magnetics research.
