    The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider includes a large program of Standard Model measurements covering a wide range of interactions and final state topologies including jets, charged leptons, and photons. Measurements of Standard Model processes are essential for comparison with theoretical calculations and modeling. This talk will present the latest results from ATLAS using...

    In the ATLAS experiment the measurement of hadronic final states usually involves the detection of collimated cones of particles, more simply called *jets*. Despite all the efforts at the hardware and software levels to correctly reconstruct the 4-momenta of jets, there is still room for improvement. Many factors can influence the shapes and amounts of energy deposited in detectors; for...

    The Standard Model predicts that top-antitop pairs produced through the strong interaction will have zero net longitudinal polarization due to parity conservation. Physics beyond the Standard Model could allow for non-parity conserving top-antitop pair production which would produce a net polarization signal at the Large Hadron Collider. I will present a measurement of the average polarization...

    This contribution will present the latest results on the Higgs searches performed with the ATLAS detector, including beyond the Standard Model (BSM) Higgs searches, as well as the recently discovered Higgs particle consistent with the Standard Model (SM). Special attention will be given to the decays of the Higgs particle to gauge bosons.
