For the central role of the double-slit experiment in quantum mechanics, see, for example, R. P. Feynman, R. B. Leighton, and M. Sands, The Feynman Lectures on Physics (Addison-Wesley, Reading, MA, 1964), Vol. 3; or the famous Bohr-Einstein dialogue, reprinted and commented on in J. A. Wheeler and W. H. Zurek, Quantum Theory and Measurement (Princeton University Press, Princeton, 1983).

The importance of probability amplitudes rather than probabilities is emphasized in the path-integral formulation of quantum mechanics. See, for example, R. P. Feynman and A. R. Hibbs, Quantum Mechanics and Path Integrals (McGraw-Hill, New York, 1965); L. S. Schulman, Techniques and Applications of Path Integration (Wiley, New York, 1981).

It has been pointed out frequently that for most cases the Wigner function in the semiclassical limit can be expressed by an appropriately normalized delta function located at the Bohr-Sommerfeld phase-space trajectory, Eq. (3.1). For insight into when and why, see, especially, J. P. Dahl, in Energy Storage and Redistribution in Molecules, edited by J. Hinze (Plenum, New York, 1983);
