Reconstruction of tau decays based on particle flow techniques at ATLAS — •Peter Wagner — Universität Bonn

The reconstruction of the substructure of tau decays can improve the tau energy resolution and is important for various measurements involving tau polarization, such as the spin-parity state of the newly discovered Boson in the tau decay channel.

A tau reconstruction algorithm for ATLAS based on particle flow is scheduled to be ready in 2013. This presentation introduces ongoing efforts and compares possible implementations.
