Arthur Edwin Covington (21 September 1913 – 17 March 2001) was a Canadian physicist who made the first radio astronomy measurements in Canada. Through these he made the valuable discovery that sunspots generate large amounts of microwaves at the 10.7 cm wavelength, offering a simple all-weather method to measure and predict sunspot activity, and their associated effects on communications. The sunspot detection program has run continuously to this day.

März 2001 in Kingston, Ontario) war ein kanadischer Physiker, der die ersten radioastronomischen Messungen in Kanada durchführte. Durch diese machte er die wertvolle Entdeckung, dass Sonnenflecken große Mengen an Mikrowellen bei 10,7 cm Wellenlänge ausstrahlen (Solarer Radioflux), was eine einfache, bodengestützte und witterungsunabhängige Methode zur Messung und Vorhersage der Sonnenfleckenaktivität und der Funkwellenausbreitung bietet. Der entsprechende Messwert wird nach ihm auch als Covington-Index bezeichnet. Das Programm zur Entdeckung von Sonnenflecken läuft beständig bis heute.
