Arthur Holly Compton (Wooster, 10 de setembro de 1892 — Berkeley, 15 de março de 1962) foi um físico estadunidense.

Foi laureado com o Nobel de Física de 1927, dividido com o físico escocês Charles Thomson Rees Wilson, pela descoberta do "efeito Compton" de diminuição de energia de um fóton de raio-X ou de raio gama, quando ele interage com a matéria.
