My activities in ATLAS:

This is a collection of work that I am doing in ATLAS (including some links to notes, papers and relevant webpages):

Coordination activities:

Contact for the SUSY upgrade efforts in ATLAS (2013-2014)
Chair and member of several Editorial Boards (since data taking)
Coordination of the ATLAS SUSY searches with missing transverse energy (2009-2010)
Co-leader of SUSY jets+MET group (2010-2011)
Co-leader SUSY 1-lepton (2010)
Co-leader General Search group (2013-2015)
Coordination of the German ATLAS SUSY group (2009-2011)
Coordination of the ATLAS SUSY search strategy ("informal" subconvenor) (2008-2009)

Monte Carlo studies, Data analysis, software, trigger, upgrade activities:

Generic Searches for new phenomena

A General Search for new phenomena in (almost all) ATLAS data (since 2011)
(ATLAS CONF note with even more channels for 8 TeV) (NEW ! 2014)
(ATLAS CONF note with all 655 channels for 7 TeV) (2012)

Trigger algorithms on Level 1
L1 MET and HT reconstruction with the L1 topogical trigger (since 2013)
Internal ATLAS Twiki

The Search for Supersymmetry
ATLAS SUSY simulation studies:
- Pre LHC (Determine strategy for first SUSY searches, various different models)
Expected Performance of the ATLAS Experiment - Detector, Trigger and Physics (2008)
Prospects for Supersymmetry and Univeral Extra Dimensions discovery based on inclusive searches at a 10 TeV centre-of-mass energy with ATLAS (2009)
Prospects for Supersymmetry discovery based on inclusive searches at a 7 TeV centre-of-mass energy with the ATLAS detector (2010)
- Pre LHC (Determine reach for different centre-of-mass energies)
Studies for Charmonix conference 2010, link missing, available is:
Simple Extrapolations for SUSY limits at different LHC centre-of-mass energies and luminosities (2011)
- Post LHC (Determine reach for HL-LHC options)
ATLAS note for ECFA (2013)
ATLAS note for ICHEP ) (2014)
ATLAS searches for Supersymmetry:
