Correlation time in MC simulation

Hi everyone!

I was wondering if there's a rule of thumb or some method to calculate something similar to correlation time as in MD simulations, i.e. how much further images have to be to consider them as de-correlated in an MC simulation. I presume it will also depend on the number of molecules in the simulation box. I would be highly obliged if anyone can point me to some relevant literature for calculating correlation between structures of MC simulation.

Thank you so much!
