where the last idenity follows from the [[Flux coordinates#Useful properties of the FSA|properties of the flux surface average]]. The Hamada angles are sometimes defined in 'turns' (i.e. <math>(\theta, \xi) \in [0,1)</math>) instead of radians (<math>(\theta, \xi) \in [0,2\pi)</math>)). This choice together with the choice of the volume <math>V</math> as radial coordinate makes the Jacobian equal to unity. Alternatively one can select <math>\psi = \frac{V}{4\pi^2}</math> as radial coordinate with the same effect.
