1. Gauss

   A name suggested for unit intensity of magnetic field. Sylvanus P. Thomson proposed for its value the intensity of a field of 1E8 C. G. S. electro-magnetic units. J. A. Fleming proposed the strength of field which would develop one volt potential difference in a wire 1E6 centimeters long, moving through such field with a velocity of one centimeter per second. This is one hundred times greater than Thomson's standard. Sir William Thomson suggested the intensity of field produced by a current of one ampere at a distance of one centimeter The gauss is not used to any extent; practical calculations are based on electro-magnetic lines of force.
