    "abstract": "It is shown that the wave function describes the state of the statistical\nensemble E[S] of individual particles, or the statistical average particle \u003cS\u003e.\nThis result follows from the fact that in the classical limit h=0 the\nSchroedinger equation turns to the dynamic equations for the statistical\nensemble of classical particles. The statement that the wave function describes\nthe state of an individual particle is incompatible with the quantum mechanics\nformalism. It is shown that the statistical interpretation of quantum mechanics\nis a corollary of the fact, that the QM formalism is the technique of the\nstatistical ensemble description, restricted by constraints of the dynamic\nequation linearity.",
