Description
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 will be given to the discussion of the initial
understanding of the jet energy scale. Furthermore, the corrected distribution of the angular
difference between the two leading jets will be shown, both for the azimuthal as well as
for the polar angle. Also studies of the shape of the observed jets will be presented.
All results will be compared to theoretical predictions.
