Multijet background estimation for SUSY searches and particle flow offline reconstruction using the ATLAS detector at the LHC

This thesis describes the jet smearing method, a data-driven technique for estimating the multijet background to Supersymmetry (SUSY) searches using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The final 2011 and 2012 “ATLAS jets, missing transverse energy and zero leptons analysis” search...
