A.u. of Magnetic Field (a.u.) is a unit in the category of Magnetic field strength. It is also known as atomic units, u.a., au, ua. This unit is commonly used in the a.u. unit system. A.u. of Magnetic Field (a.u.) has a dimension of MT^-2I^-1 where M is mass, T is time, and I is electric current. It can be converted to the corresponding standard SI unit T by multiplying its value by a factor of 235051.8086.

Note that the seven base dimensions are M (Mass), L (Length), T (Time), Q (Temperature), N (Aamount of Substance), I (Electric Current), and J (Luminous Intensity).

Other units in the category of Magnetic field strength include Gamma (g), Gauss (G, Gs), Newton Per Ampere Per Meter (N/A-m), and Tesla (T).
