Aug 28, 2021 at 15:07 comment added mp12853 I am not sure I understand what you mean. The formula I included is for the general intensity distribution produced by a double slit experiment (which includes the assumption that the distance to the screen is large relative to the slit width). (I have edited the question to try and make this more clear)
