Summary It is clear that the wire is damaged in Duke wires and the surface has changed in Indiana wires Wire damage may be more a function of time exposed to gas as opposed to the amount of accumulated charge Duke wires have > double the exposure time IU wires have higher accumulated charge Xe-CO2 wire only exhibit small pores on surface Xe-CF4-CO2 wires show some heavy damage, both Au removal and deposits There is trace fluorine detected on the surface of the wire Jack Fowler, Duke HEP
