# Slot: tail_duration 


_Length of the trailing window as a duration, in the same time unit as the integration step. Converted to a sample count against this observation's own sample period (its `period`/`downsample_period`, else the integration `step_size`), so the window stays the same length of simulated time at any step. Mutually exclusive with `tail_samples`._
