Abstract
Many models for physics Beyond the Standard Model predict an increased production rate of tau leptons. Therefore hadronically decaying tau leptons play an important role in searches for new physics at the LHC. By triggering on them, the discovery power of ATLAS can be greatly enhanced for many Beyond the Standard Model searches. In this contribution we present a brief description of the ATLAS tau trigger system and demonstrate its robustness and reliability during 2011.
