Purpose
A new point of view in the study of impact is introduced.
Design/methodology/approach
Using fundamental theorems in real analysis we study the convergence of well-known impact measures.
Findings
We show that pointwise convergence is maintained by all well-known impact bundles (such as the h-, g-, and R-bundle) and that the μ-bundle even maintains uniform convergence. Based on these results, a classification of impact bundles is given.
Research limitations
As for all impact studies, it is just impossible to study all measures in depth.
Practical implications
It is proposed to include convergence properties in the study of impact measures.
Originality/value
This article is the first to present a bundle classification based on convergence properties of impact bundles.
