Abstract
The ballistic probe principle is applied in this experimental study. Lead pellets were fired from a modified CO2 powered gun and charged by triboelectrification; characteristics of the discharge to a metal target were measured. Preliminary results suggest a dependence of discharge characteristics on speed of approach.
