Description
Measurements of high-pT processes in lead-lead collisions can
provide insight on the physics responsible for the quenching
of jets in the quark gluon plasma. Results will be presented
from ATLAS measurements of single jet suppression, both inclusively
and as a function of the azimuthal angle of the jets with respect
to the elliptic flow plane, single jet fragmentation, and gamma-jet
correlations. Theoretical comparisons to and implications of the
results will be discussed. Also, results will be presented for
measurements of photon, Z, and W production that provide essential
tests on calculations of hard scattering rates and nuclear geometry.
