Error in integrals?

Wouter
Just a footnote to your fine wrapping up of the of the integral problem.
We can split the range of integration for Integrate (as for NIntegrate)

	Integrate[f,{x,a1,a2,... an}]
and integrate in one go.

In this case it is slightly faster

ior[m_] = 1/3*(2*Sqrt[3]*Sqrt[(-1 + m^2)^2/(1 + m^2)^4] + Sqrt[(Sqrt[3]
- 6*m - Sqrt[3]*m^2)^2/(1 + m^2)^4] +  Sqrt[(Sqrt[3] + 6*m -
Sqrt[3]*m^2)^2/(1 + m^2)^4]);

Integrate[ior[a],{a,0,2-Sqrt[3],1}]

	        1        -3 + Sqrt[3]     3 - 2 Sqrt[3]
	-1 + ------- + ---------------- + --------------
	     Sqrt[3]   3 (-2 + Sqrt[3])   -6 + 3 Sqrt[3]

%//FullSimplify
	
		Sqrt[3]
