-Where the Hamiltonian $\hat{H}_{0,S}$ is time-independent.
-Suppose a time-dependent $\hat{H}_{1,S}$ is added,
+Where the "simple" Hamiltonian $\hat{H}_{0,S}$ is time-independent.
+Suppose a (maybe time-dependent) "difficult" $\hat{H}_{1,S}$ is added,
so that the total Hamiltonian is $\hat{H}_S = \hat{H}_{0,S} + \hat{H}_{1,S}$.
Then it is easier to consider the expectation value
in the [interaction picture](/know/concept/interaction-picture/):
