B JO - Physics Letters B SP - 327 EP - 345 VL - 694 IS - 4-5 PB - Elsevier Science Bv KW - ATLAS KW - LHC KW - 7 TeV KW - Dijets angular distributions KW - Quark compositeness KW - Contact interactions AB - Dijet angular distributions from the first LHC pp collisions at center-of-mass energy root s = 7 TeV have been measured with the ATLAS detector. The dataset used for this analysis represents an integrated luminosity of 3.1 pb(-1). Dijet chi distributions and centrality ratios have been measured up to dijet masses of 2.8 TeV, and found to be in good agreement with Standard Model predictions. Analysis of the chi distributions excludes quark contact interactions with a compositeness scale Lambda below 3.4 TeV, at 95% confidence level, significantly exceeding previous limits.
