Inserting the SI units into the above unit correspondences,
we find the following conversion factors:
-\begin{equation}
- M_\mathrm{sun} \equiv 1.477\, \mathrm{km}
- \equiv 4.92673\, \mathrm{\mu s}
- \equiv 8.344956\cdot 10^{15}\, \mathrm{T},
-\end{equation}
+\begin{eqnarray}
+ [L] & = & 1\, M_\mathrm{sun} \equiv 1.477\, \mathrm{km}
+ \\{}
+ [T] & = & 1\, M_\mathrm{sun} \equiv 4.92673\, \mathrm{\mu s}
+ \\{}
+ [B] & = & 1\, \sqrt{\mu_0} /M_\mathrm{sun} \equiv 8.344956\cdot 10^{15}\, \mathrm{T},
+\end{eqnarray}
where T (Tesla) is the magnetic field unit in SI,
$1\,\mathrm{T}=1\,\mathrm{N/(A\cdot m)}$, or in its cgs equivalent,
$1\,\mathrm{Tesla} = 10^4\,\mathrm{Gauss}$.
