Sumario:The ATLAS collaboration has performed studies of a wide range of QCD phenomena, from soft particle to hard photon and jet production. Among recent results are the measurement of Z event shape observables sensitive to the modelling of the underlying event, and the measurement of diffractive dijet production with a large rapidity gap, which tests the interplay of soft and hard phenomena. The inelastic pp cross section, a fundamental property of the strong interaction, is measured. Precision measurements of the isolated high pT inclusive photon cross section at cms energies of 8TeV test the theoretical predictions and constrain parton density functions. An overview of these results is given.
