This contribution gives an overview of the recent measurements of the differential cross sections for final states involving photons and/or jets at the centre-of-mass energies of 8 and 13 TeV, published by the ATLAS Collaboration. The results are compared with several next-to-leading order calculations and with the latest predictions of various Monte Carlo generators. New measurements of transverse energy-energy correlations and their associated asymmetries in multi-jet events at 8 TeV are also presented. Both measurements are used to extract the strong coupling constant and test the renormalization group equation.
