Sumario:The production of jets and photons at ATLAS will be ideal tests of perturbative QCD (pQCD) in a kinematic region never observed before. Gaining a deeper understanding of pQCD is essential to searches for new physics at the LHC. In addition, differential cross-section measurements of jet and photon production can be used to constrain parton density functions. The detection of jets and photons at ATLAS is achieved by using finely segmented calorimeters, which surround an inner tracking system enclosed in a 2T solenoid field.
