Description
The physics program at the LHC includes precision tests of the Standard Model (SM),
the search for the SM Higgs boson up to 1 TeV, the search for the MSSM Higgs bosons
in the entire parameter space, the search for Super Symmetry, sensitivity to
alternative scenarios such as compositeness, large extra dimensions, etc. This
requires general purpose detectors with excellent performance. ATLAS is one such
detectors under construction for the LHC. Data taking is expected to start in April
2007. The detector performance and the prospects for discoveries are studied in
various physics and detector performance working groups. The ATLAS offline
computing system includes the development of common tools and of a framework for
analysis. Such a development consists of studying the different approaches to the
analysis domain, in order to identify commonalities, and to propose a basline
unified framework for analysis in collaboration with the various software and
computing groups, the physics and detector performance working groups integrating
feedback from the user community.
In this talk, we will review the common tools, event data formats for analysis, and
the activities toward the Analysis Model.
