So, this is really a question. Suppose you have:

[tex]a(t)=\int_{\Omega} |\psi|^2[/tex]

and then you have,

[tex]\frac{\partial t}{\int_{t_0}^{t_1} dt a(t)}[/tex]

Surely this can't be right, because that would imply by substitution

[tex]\frac{\partial t}{\int_{t_0}^{t_1} dt \int_{\Omega} |\psi|^2}[/tex]

Is that really allowed?
