Time of Maximum Information before peak

The point of maximum information before peak indicates when in a lightcurve with constant snr the contribution to the characterization of the event timescale tE is at maximum. After that point in timem the timescale characterization is decisively improved. via Markus Hundertmark markus.hundertmark@uni-heidelberg.de

Parameters:
impact_parameterfloat (1)
