Description

Many properties of cosmological objects are reported with the addition of the dimensionless Hubble parameter h. This template addresses only the inverse Hubble parameter h−1
0.70
(since h0.70 is more straightforward to wikicode). If no subscript is specified, then the reader may choose a value of h of their liking to modify whatever the reported measurement is. If a subscript is specified, then the property being reported has been modified by the value of that subscript. For example, 7×1013 h−1
 
Template:Solar mass = 1014 h−1
0.70
Template:Solar mass.

Our best measurement, as of 2013, for the Hubble parameter is h = 0.6780 ±0.0077 from the Planck mission. In early 2011 it was 0.704+0.013
−0.014
from WMAP 7-year data.[1] See Hubble's law for the most recent value of H0.

Usage

Instead of writing ''h''<small>{{su|p=−1|b=0.6780|a=l}}</small>, one can simply do the following (a numerical subscript is now optional):

  • {{hub|0.6780}} ? h−1
    0.6780
  • {{hub|0.75}} ? h−1
    0.75
  • {{hub}} ? h−1
     

Options

To include a link to Hubble's law, use the |link= parameter. It is optional and defaults to not-used, <blank>, or <null>. It is activated by "yes", or any text:

  • {{hub|0.7|link=yes}} ? h−1
    0.7
  • {{hub|0.7|link=y}} ? h−1
    0.7
  • {{hub|link=no}} ? h−1
