(1901) V. 402–18.] Giorgi system: a system of units based on the metre, the kilogramme, the second, and one other (electrical) unit; now spec. a system in which the electrical unit is the ampere.
1905Jrnl. Inst. Electr. Engin. XXXIV. 179 The Giorgi system is a rational one (in the Heaviside sense). 1933Bull. Nat. Research Council No. 93, 103 Like the Giorgi system, it could be adopted either unrationalized or rationalized. 1934Nature 21 Apr. 597 (heading) The Giorgi (M.K.S.Ω) system of units. 1964Internat. System (SI) Units (B.S.I.) 6 This system, called the MKSA or Giorgi System, was adopted by the International Electrotechnical Commission in 1950. 1969Nature 8 Nov. 581/2 Physically all four of E, H, D and B act as ‘force vectors’. Thus a dimensional difference between the members of each pair, as in the Giorgi systems, results in distortion. |
