Study of jets in Heavy Ion collisions using the ATLAS detector

Nucleus-nucleus collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) represent an unprecedented opportunity to create and study the strongly interacting QCD matter in the laboratory at the highest energy frontier. One of major goals of the ATLAS heavy ion program is the extension and clarification of the understanding of the effects of hot, dense QCD matter on hard probes, specifically jets. In this short article we present some of physics capabilities of the ATLAS detector, with respect to achieveing this goal.
