✦ Synopsis

In the context of Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, the lightest Higgs boson can be produced via cascade decays of supersymmetric particles. We investigated the possibility of observing such events with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. We showed that, for some regions of the Minimal Super-Gravity parameter space compatibles with the last LEP searches, the lightest Higgs boson can be discovered with less than 10 fb -1 , giving results competitive with standard Higgs production channels. The possibility of reconstructing the supersymmetric particles mass spectrum in these scenarios has also been studied.

Jet cross sections have been measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector. The measurement uses an integrated luminosity of 17 nb -1 recorded at the Large Hadron Collider. The anti-k t algorithm is used to identify jets with a jet resolution param
