Title : Calculating the Hubble Parameter

Description : The Hubble parameter H is the Universe expansion rate
in any time. In cosmology is customary to use the redshift redshift
in place of time, becausethe redshift is directily mensure
in the light of galaxies moving away from us.

So, the general relation that we obtain is

H = hubble_constant*(radiation_density*(redshift+1)**4
+ matter_density*(redshift+1)**3
+ curvature*(redshift+1)**2 + dark_energy)**(1/2)

where radiation_density, matter_density, dark_energy are the relativity
(the percentage) energy densities that exist
in the Universe today. Here, matter_density is the
sum of the barion density and the
dark matter. Curvature is the curvature parameter and can be written in term
of the densities by the completeness


curvature = 1 - (matter_density + radiation_density + dark_energy)

Input Parameters
----------------
hubble_constant: Hubble constante is the expansion rate today usually
given in km/(s*Mpc)

radiation_density: relative radiation density today

matter_density: relative mass density today

dark_energy: relative dark energy density today

redshift: the light redshift

Returns
-------
result : Hubble parameter in and the unit km/s/Mpc (the unit can be
changed if you want, just need to change the unit of the Hubble constant)
