Distributional fixed points of a Poisson shot noise transform (for nonnegative and nonincreasing response functions bounded by 1) are characterized. The tail behavior of fixed points is described. Typically they have either exponential moments or their tails are proportional to a power function, with exponent greater than −1. The uniqueness of fixed points is also discussed.
Finally, it is proved that in most cases fixed points are absolutely continuous, apart from the possible atom at zero.
