Introduction
Andrei Khrennikov's Contextual Probability and the Two Slit Experiment

Quoted Khrennikov:

“One of problems was of purely mathematical character. The standard probabilistic formalism based on Kolmogorov’s axiomatics, 1933, was a fixed context formalism. This conventional probabilistic formalism does not provide rules of operating with probabilities calculated for different contexts. However, in quantum theory we have to operate with statistical data obtained for different complexes of physical conditions, contexts. In fact, this context dependence of probabilities as the origin of the superposition principle was already discussed by W. Heisenberg; unfortunately, only in quite general and rather philosophic framework.”1
