Sumario:Early minbias physics at Atlas ---------------------------------------- The Large Hadron Collider is expected to deliver the first collisions at end of this year. One of the first measurements that will be made by ATLAS will be the properties of the inelastic collisions: the central particle density and transverse momentum distributions. I will describe the ATLAS minimum bias triggers and the performance of the low transverse momentum track reconstruction. I will discuss the precision with which the minimum bias distributions can be measured with early data.
