Conformal Hubble parameter ($\mathcal{H}=a^{\prime }/a=aH$)

For conformal time $d\tau =dt/a$, the conformal Hubble parameter is $\mathcal{H}=a^{\prime }/a=aH=\dot{a}$, where primes and dots denote conformal and cosmic time derivatives respectively. Its inverse, in units $c=1$, is the comoving Hubble radius. It differs from the ordinary Hubble parameter by one factor of the scale factor.
