which we will use as the input to our theory.
From the survival function, we define the time-dependent rate coefficient through an appropriate time derivative
of the survival function, which depends depending on the total order of reaction. For first-order irreversible decay reactions, $A\to
B$, \textrm{products}$ and $i=1$, the rate law defines the time-dependent rate coefficient
\begin{equation}
k_1(t) \equiv \frac{-d\ln S(t)}{dt}
\end{equation}
In traditional kinetics,
the rate coefficient irreversible decay is
only dependent on one rate coefficient, assumed constant, in which case $k(t)\to\omega$.
%The time-dependent rate coefficient, $k(t)$, is determined by integrating the rate law of the reaction and forming a survival function from the integrated rate law. We define $k(t)$ from the appropriate survival function and rate law
\begin{equation}
k_i(t) \equiv \frac{d}{dt}\frac{1}{S(t)^{i-1}}\quad\quad\textrm{for}\quad i=2,3,\ldots.
\end{equation}
