Description
The ATLAS experiment will provide an opportunity to explore interactions at higher energies than previous detectors; allowing a test of standard model predictions, as well as opening the possibility of 'new physics' discoveries. The inclusive jet cross-section at high pT is one measurement which may provide evidence of physics `beyond the standard model', however a thorough understanding of uncertainties on its prediction and measurement is necessary. I will provide an overview of errors on the inclusive jet cross-section and discuss methods of using hadron-collider data in global PDF fits by use of integration grids (the ApplGrid project). I will also give a brief outline of the potential sensitivity to quark compositeness that ATLAS may be able to achieve.
