Abstract
The analysis of the first ATLAS data collected from proton–proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of \(\sqrt{s}=7\) TeV at the LHC is an opportunity to test the Standard Model of particle physics to scales never reached before. The energy scale of the LHC is beyond any other particle accelerator: The theory has not yet been verified at these energies and the experiments will require tuning and calibration before being fully understood.
