Abstract

We estimate the hardness factors and the equivalent 1 MeV neutron fluences for hadrons fluences expected at the GaAs positions wheels in the ATLAS Inner Detector. On this basis the degradation of the GaAs particle detectors made from different substrates as a function of years LHC operation is predicted.
