DESCRIPTION:This talk presents an overview of past\, current\, and future 
 contributions to the ATLAS experiment\, spanning from Standard Model preci
 sion measurements to new physics searches and the development of advanced 
 luminosity detectors.\n\nThe discussion begins with ATLAS forward detector
 s\, focusing on the LUCID system for luminosity monitoring. The evolution 
 from LUCID-2 to LUCID-3 is explored\, highlighting the challenges posed by
  HL-LHC conditions and the new detector prototypes under development: LUCI
 D JF\, LUCID JN\, and Fiber. Performance studies demonstrate their potenti
 al to ensure robust and precise luminosity measurements across various bea
 m conditions.\n\nThe second part of the talk delves into key ATLAS physics
  analyses\, emphasising precision measurements of Standard Model processes
 \, including W and Z boson cross sections and their role in PDF constraint
 s. The importance of V+jets and V+ heavy-flavor jets final states is also 
 discussed.  Additionally\, I will present a search for long-lived particle
 s based on dE/dx measurements and the identification of low-β signatures\
 , providing  a potential signature of physics beyond the Standard Model\n\
 nFinally\, the talk will conclude with an outreach project conducted in Bo
 logna aimed at children aged 5 to 11\, designed to study gender bias in ST
 EM fields and promote equal opportunities in science from an early age.
