Symbol [Translingual]

Head templates: {{head|mul|symbol}} Mpc/h
  1. (astronomy) An indeterminate unit of distance between 4/3 Mpc and 2 Mpc. The h is a parameter in the closed interval [0.5, 0.75] and reflects an uncertainty in the Hubble constant. For example, in a universe where the Hubble constant is 70,(km)/(sMpc), h is 0.7. Similarly, a Hubble constant of 50,(km)/(sMpc) would lead to a value for h of 0.5. Wikipedia link: Parsec
