Sumario:Jet measurements at the LHC are expected to provide new insight into the mechanisms responsible for the energy loss accompanying a propagation of hard scattered partons through the hot and dense medium created in nucleus-nucleus collisions. After the first observation of jet suppression at LHC seen in fall 2010 by ATLAS in the measurement of centrality-dependent dijet asymmetry, more detailed studies of jet production in nucleus-nucleus collisions at LHC followed. All three major LHC experiments, ALICE, CMS, and ATLAS provided a variety of measurements to further investigate observed jet suppression. We will show the latest ATLAS results and summarize the state of the art of understanding of the jet suppression at LHC.
