Abstract
We analyze a partial differential equation that models the two-slit experiment of quantum mechanics. The state variable of the equation is the probability density function of particle positions. The equation has a diffusion term corresponding to the random movement of particles, and a nonlocal advection term corresponding to the movement of particles in the transverse directionperpendicular to their forward movement. The model is compared to the Schrodinger equation model of the experiment. The model supports the ensemble interpretation of quantum mechanics.
