I am following the derivation shown in this link on adiabatic passage.
I have posted one part below:
I am simply wondering how this expression was derived and how it indicates the probability of being in a state that is different from the initial state? How exactly is this represented by:
$$ \langle \hat{U}^\dagger(t_1,t_0)\hat{U}(t_1,t_0)\rangle - \langle \hat{U}^\dagger(t_1,t_0)\rangle\langle \hat{U}(t_1,t_0)\rangle $$
