An overview of the latest results on high-transverse momentum particle production in lead-lead collisions at sqrt(sNN)=2.76 TeV obtained with the ATLAS detector is presented. In particular the measurements on the charged hadron suppression, jet quenching, di-jet energy imbalance, di-muon final states and W production are discussed. The results were obtained from the sample of minimum bias lead-lead collision data with an integrated luminosity up to 7 mub^-1 collected in the first heavy-ion run in 2010.
