STATAMP_TO_AMPERE#

STATAMP_TO_AMPERE = 3.3356409519815207e-10#

Conversion factor from statampere to ampere.

In Gaussian CGS, charge is measured in statcoulombs (esu). One statampere (statcoulomb per second) equals \(10/c\) amperes, where \(c\) is the speed of light in cm s⁻¹:

\[1\;\text{statA} = \frac{10}{c}\;\text{A} \approx 3.336 \times 10^{-10}\;\text{A}.\]
