Top quarks are expected to be produced copiously at the LHC, even at the lower
beam energy and luminosity expected in the first year of running. Establishing the
top-pair signal and measuring the production cross-section will be important
benchmarks for ATLAS, which will also help understand the detector performance
for events with high-pT leptons, high jet multiplicity, missing transverse...

Making use of the excellent calorimetry of the ATLAS experiment, measurements of the
cross-section for jet production and of jet properties in proton-proton interactions
at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV will be presented. The corrected and unfolded inclusive cross-section
for high-pT jets will be described, together with the cross-section as a function of the
invariant di-jet mass. Special emphasis...

We delineate the SUSY reach for the LHC operating at $\sqrt{s}$=7 TeV,
for integrated luminosities ranging from 100~pb$^{-1}$ up to 1~fb$^{-1}$,
that is anticipated to be accumulated before its energyupgrade to
14~TeV. Motivated by the quality of the early LHC measurements, we
include missing transverse energy in our assessment of the reach, and
show that for degenerate squarks and...

We discuss prospects for SUSY searches in the inclusive all-hadronic channel in the CMS experiment, and we present early results demonstrating the current performance of MET and other observables that play a critical role in these searches. These signatures are expected to be amongst the most sensitive to many SUSY models, but they are also very challenging. Emphasis is placed on methodologies...

We discuss prospects for SUSY searches in all-hadronic events in the CMS experiment with exclusive jet reconstruction. Due to their generic nature, these signatures are expected to be amongst the most sensitive to many SUSY models, but they are also very challenging. Several methods for data-driven background determinations are presented, along with results from tests on early 7 TeV data...

We report on early inclusive searches for new physics,
in particular supersymmetry, in events with jets and missing transverse
energy, with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. We focus on the relevant
performance of the ATLAS detector
in measuring jets and missing energy in first collision data, and we
take a first look at the 7 TeV data set from a SUSY
search perspective. We also report on...
