Abstract
Tau jets play an important role in the physics expected at the LHC. Identification of hadronic taus will be one of the keys to beyond the Standard Model searches. We discuss the hadronic tau reconstruction and identification method studied in the ATLAS experiment at CERN. A brief discussion of the tau trigger is also included.
