Gauss (unit) symbol is uppercase ("G"), but when the unit is spelled out, it should be written in lowercase ("gauss"), unless it begins a sentence. Gauss (unit) The gauss, abbreviated as G or Gs, is the cgs unit of measurement of magnetic flux density (or "magnetic induction") (B). It is named after German mathematician and physicist Carl Friedrich Gauss. One gauss is defined as one maxwell per square centimeter. The cgs system has been superseded by the International System of Units (SI), which uses the tesla (symbol T) as the unit of magnetic flux density. One gauss equals 1 tesla (100 μT),
Flux loop integrate the signal over a period of time to get the magnetic field at that instant (not just the change in magnetic fields). This is normally done by adding a integrator circuit which will passively integrate the electrical signal. The flux loop is common on tokamaks, magnetic mirrors, Field-reversed configurations, the Levitated dipole experiment and the polywell. In tokamaks a set of loops is used, and these are spaced slightly off-center and non-concentrically. Placing the loops intentionally asymmetrically allows the users to find the magnetic field density at different points inside the tokamak. The distance between the loops was determined
