The clustering of the background-contributing X-ray sources is reflected in the excess (i.e., non-Poisson) fluctuations in the X-ray background (XRB). Observational limits on ΔI/I can therefore be used to constrain either the clumpiness of X-ray sources or their contribution to the XRB if their clustering properties are known (see Barcons & Fabian 1987 for details).
