As of August 5, 2026, no new social media or news activity has been recorded for Arthur Holly Compton. Arthur Holly Compton (September 10, 1892 – March 15, 1962) was an American physicist who shared the 1927 Nobel Prize in Physics with C. T. R. Wilson for his discovery of the Compton effect, which demonstrated the particle nature of electromagnetic radiation. It was a significant discovery at the time; the wave nature of light had been well-demonstrated, but the idea that light had both wave and particle properties was not easily accepted. In 1919, Compton was awarded one of the first two Nationa StarFeed checks for new updates every few minutes. Use the day-by-day view above to see activity from other dates.
