Common Use Cases

  • Reporting magnetic flux of small lab coils or magnetic circuits in cgs terms.
  • Quantifying magnetic flux in solar physics and sunspot analysis.
  • Describing flux linkage in sensors or tiny magnetic cores.
  • Integrating legacy magnetic data with current SI-based measurements.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always verify unit consistency when mixing cgs and SI units in calculations.
  • Use this tool to update legacy maxwell measurements to SI-compatible units.
  • Double-check converted values in sensitive magnetic flux analyses.
  • Be aware of potential rounding effects with very small or large values.

Limitations

  • Maxwell is based on the cgs system, which may lead to confusion if not properly converted to SI units.
  • Rounding errors can occur during conversion due to the small conversion factor.
  • Ensure consistent use of units for both area and magnetic flux density to avoid calculation errors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does one maxwell (Mx) represent in magnetic flux?
One maxwell is the cgs unit of magnetic flux equal to one gauss times square centimeter and corresponds to 10⁻⁸ weber in the SI system.

Why convert maxwell to tesla square centimeters?
Converting maxwell to tesla square centimeters enables integration of older cgs-based magnetic flux data with modern SI-compatible measurements for laboratory and research use.

Can I use maxwell and tesla square centimeters interchangeably?
No, because maxwell belongs to the cgs system while tesla square centimeters are SI-compatible units, proper conversion is necessary to avoid errors.

Key Terminology

Maxwell (Mx)
A cgs unit of magnetic flux equal to one gauss times square centimeter, representing magnetic flux through a surface.
Tesla square centimeter (T·cm²)
A unit of magnetic flux computed as magnetic flux density in tesla multiplied by area in square centimeters; corresponds to SI-compatible flux measurements.
