The group is working on a variety of physics and performance topics. One focus in the group is to study physics processes which rely crucially on the performance of the ATLAS calorimeters to measure jets and missing transverse energy: QCD production of jets, TTbar pairs and beyond the standard model processes such as those involving extra dimensions or quark compositeness. As part of this focus we are involved in the optimization of the calorimeter response to jets (being proponents of the method based on cell energy density weighting) and are heavily involved in the ATLAS JetEtMiss Combined Performance group.
