Influence of cross-talk rejection procedures on two-neutron intensity interferometry.

This work investigates the effects of a cross-talk rejection procedure on the two-neutron correlation function. The rejection method relies only upon simple kinematic relations between the energy of the detected neutrons and can be applied to commonly used detector configurations. It is demonstrated that the comparison of a cross-talk corrected correlation function with the theory is meaningful as long as the cross-talk rejection procedure and the response of the detector filter are consistently incorporated into the theoretical calculations
