Preferred Label : time constant;
Detailed label : time constant, τc of a detector;
IUPAC definition : If the output of a detector changes exponentially with time, the time required for
it to change from its initial value by the fraction 1- exp(-t/τc) (for t τ c) of
the final value, is called the time constant.;
