Abstract
A technique is described for stabilizing the gain of a gas proportional counter system. A feedback signal is derived from an auxiliary calibration counter, which controls the high voltage applied to the detectors. Theoretical speed and accuracy limitations are discussed. Performance of an actual system is described.Keywords
