Homework Statement




I have to confirm that d/dt [tex]\int[/tex] Y1* Y2 = 0


So far I have used the product rule to get two expressions.

Then I have used the TDSE to replace dY/dt and dY*/dt. I end up with the line:

(i/[tex]\hbar[/tex]) [ [tex]\int[/tex] H* Y1* Y2 - [tex]\int[/tex] Y1* H Y2 ]

from here I'm not sure where to go. I thought about using the commuator relation but I don't think i can since the operator is at the start of the expression in expression 1.
