oersted

oersted
(Oe)
   1. the CGS unit of magnetic field strength. The oersted is defined to be the field strength in a vacuum at a distance 1 centimeter from a unit magnetic pole. A field of one oersted generates a magnetomotive force of 1 gilbert per centimeter of conductor. There is no named MKS unit of field intensity, but the oersted is equivalent in MKS units to 79.577 472 ampere turns per meter. The unit honors Hans Christian Ørsted (1777-1851), a Danish physicist, who discovered electromagnetism in 1820. Before 1930 this unit was called the gauss2.
   2. another name for the gauss1 as a unit of magnetic flux density.
