There seems to be a typing error. It mentions:

One microTesla is equivalent to 100 Gauss.

However, one microTesla is 1/100 Gauss.

Oops, you’re right. I’ve corrected the text. It doesn’t change the results, as 19 microTesla was given as 0.19 Gauss in that sentence as it should be. Thanks for catching this, Neeraj! — Ron
