H (A / m) – magnetic field strength
B (N / Am = Tesla = 10,000 gauss) – magnetic induction – magnetic flux density
Φ (Tm2 = Wb) – magnetic flux
L (H = W b / A) – inductance
Gauss is a unit of magnetic flux density.
For comparison, the conventional magnet used for pressing the paper has a constant magnetic flux density of 200 Gauss’s.
