Jet energy measurement with the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at √s =7 TeV

The jet energy scale and its systematic uncertainty are determined for jets measured with the ATLAS detector at the LHC in proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of √ s = 7 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 38 pb -1 . Jets are reconstructed with the anti-k t algorithm...
