Popis:	This note describes the performance of several similar stabilizer systems intended for scintillation counting channels. In neutron time-of-flight spectrometry, the absence of strong and permanent features in the pulse height spectrum necessitates use of a light pulser for stabilization reference purposes. Such a system lends itself to a description in terms of random walk theory, which is used here to derive the response to a step excursion in gain and the natural gain fluctuation as a function of several adjustable parameters.
