Arthur Compton

Arthur Compton (1929)

Arthur Holly Compton (10. septembar 1892 – 15. mart 1962) bio je američki fizičar.

Godine 1923. primijetio je da elektro-magnetno zračenje (EMZ) visoke frekvencije (gama zraci, X-zraci) pri prolasku kroz plinove gubi dio svoje frekvencije, odnosno smanjuje se njegova energija. To se događa zbog interakcije između fotona svjetlosti i elektrona u plinu pri čemu fotoni dio svoje energije predaju elektronu. Tako oni nakon prolaska kroz plin imaju manju energiju i frekvenciju nego što su imali prije prolaska kroz plin.

Dobitnik je Nobelove nagrade za fiziku 1927.[1] za otkriće Compton efekta.[2]
