Immediately after a uniformly illuminated hard slit, the normalized transmitted state is ψ(x)=w−1/2 for ∣x∣<w/2, zero elsewhere. With Fourier convention ψ(p)=(2πℏ)−1/2∫e−ipx/ℏψ(x)dx,The supplied sinc integral verifies unit normalization. The first zeros occur at ±δpx, but this finite central-lobe width is not the rms uncertainty: px2p fails to have a convergent integral.
