Sumario:With the LHC running at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, a new energy regime of physics studies will become available to the experiments. With the increased energy, there will also be experimental challenges in the form of boosted objects, which cannot be reconstructed with the standard algorithms. This talk is a review of the ATLAS experiment's preparations for the reconstruction of boosted objects. Monte Carlo studies of the reconstruction of boosted hadronic final states from top quarks, vector boson scattering and Higgs decaying into b quarks are discussed, as well as leptonic decays of boosted top quarks. Finally, the future of searches for boosted objects in LHC data using the ATLAS detector is considered.
