      abstract = {This thesis deals with two main procedures performed with  the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The  noise description in the hadronic calorimeter TileCal  represents a very valuable technical job. The second part  presents a fruitful physics analysis-- the cross section  measurement of the process p + p --> Z0 --> T + T. The  Monte Carlo simulations of the TileCal are described in the  first part of the thesis, including a detailed treatment of  the electronic noise and multiple interactions (so-called  pile-up). An accurate description of both is crucial for  the reconstruction of e.g. jets or hadronic tau-jets. The  second part reports a Standard Model measurement of the Z0  --> T + T process with the emphasis on the final state with  an electron and a hadronically decaying tau-lepton. The Z0  --> T+T channel forms the dominant background in the search  for Higgs bosons decaying into tau lepton pairs, and thus  the good understanding achieved here can facilitate more  sensitive Higgs detection.},
