 In reality, a material cannot respond instantly to $\vb{E}$,
 meaning that $\chi_e^{(1)}$ is a function of time,
 and that $\vb{P}$ is the convolution of $\chi_e^{(1)}(t)$ and $\vb{E}(t)$:
 
 $$\begin{aligned}
     \vb{P}(t)
-    = (\chi_e^{(1)} * \vb{E})(t)
-    = \int_{-\infty}^\infty \chi_e^{(1)}(t - \tau) \: \vb{E}(\tau) \:d\tau

 \end{aligned}$$
 
 Note that this definition requires $\chi_e^{(1)}(t) = 0$ for $t < 0$
