The question of coherence in inelastic x-ray absorption and fluorescence processes among identical interacting atoms is studied using a simple diatomic model. Conditions for the coherence are discussed in terms of energy scales, such as the core hole life-time, instrument energy resolutions, and the splitting of the electronic levels. As in the classical Young double-slit experiment, the primary requirement is that it be impossible to determine which atom has undergone the excitation-decay process.
