Sixteen Medipix2 pixel detector based (MPX) devices were
operated at various positions within the ATLAS detector and cavern
continuously from early 2008 up to 2013. In addition to photons,
each MPX detector is capable to detect charged particles, and
neutrons as it is covered with a mask of converter materials
dividing its area into regions sensitive to thermal or fast
neutrons. [...]

An application of the use of MPX detectors for the measurement of induced radioactivity in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiment environment is presented. The sixteen ATLAS-MPX detectors measured the associated photon ambient dose equivalent rate (H$^*$(10) rate) in ATLAS due to the LHC operation. [...]

Identification of high transverse momentum top quarks in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector
/ ATLAS Collaboration
This paper presents studies of the performance of several jet-substructure techniques, which are used to identify hadronically decaying top quarks with high transverse momentum contained in large-radius jets. The efficiency of identifying top quarks is measured using a sample of top-quark pairs and the rate of wrongly identifying jets from other quarks or gluons as top quarks is measured using multijet events collected with the ATLAS experiment in 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ of 8 TeV proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider.
