Could you repost your Mathematica code again? Quite unreadable form! This time select the cells (both inputs & outputs) and press Shif+Ctrl+I in order to convert everything to InputForm. Then select the "Copy as Plain Text". Also avoid the use of special characters like greek letters when you post to the forum.
