   When the instruments measure the particle's momentum and position at the   
   slit exit, the quantum mechanics collapses and the particles behave like   
   regular ...   
      
      
   To avoid sums of distinct measurement outcomes, one needs to modify the   
   basic dynamical equation of the quantum mechanics equation so that it is   
   non-linear.
