Research data linked to https://arxiv.org/html/2411.12835v1. Accepted for publication in Physical Review Applied. Files labelled according to published article.Figure_1a: Photon statistics for 3 canonical light sources. Column 1 = time. Other columns = probability of second photon detection for the 3 sources, as labelled.Figure_1b: Saturation of a detector with deadtime for 3 canonical light sources. Column 1= Detectable events. Other columns = detections, for the 3 sources, as labelled.Figure_2a: Loss of detector efficiency with detection rate. Column 1 = Detectable events. Other columns = detector efficiency for different sources. Figure_2b: Column 1= Waiting times. Column 2 = Waiting time distribution. Column 3 = efficiency.Figure 2b_insert: Column 1 = Waiting time. Column 2= detections. Figure_2c: Efficiency drop with detection rate. Column 1= Detections. Other columns = detector efficiency for the 3 canonical sources. Figure_3b; Second order correlation versus incident rate. Column 1= Time. Other columns = second order correlation function for the different detected rates, as labelled.Figure_3c: Third order correlation matrix. Row 1 and Column 1 =Time differences. Other cells are the (normalised) 3rd order correlation function.Figure_3d: Column 1= Detections. Column 2 = second order correlation.

Column 1 = time, Column 2 = second order correlation. Same data is shown in Figure_6b at a smaller time range.Figure_6c: Magnitude of the second order correlation as the lens focal position is changed. Column 1 = focal position in mm. Column 2 = magnitude of second order correlation function.<br>
