Description
The ATLAS Experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider
was operated with colliding proton beams at 7 TeV center of mass energy
since March 2010. It will study a broad range of particle physics at the
highest available laboratory energies, from measurements of the standard
model to searches for new physics beyond the standard model.
At the time of writing ATLAS, with high data taking efficiency, has integrated
a luminosity of 330 nb-1, which allowed already observation and measurement
of standard model processes, like vector boson and top production.
Detector status, event reconstruction and particle identification performance
in this first period of operation will be presented together with the first
physics results.
