Sir Ernest William Titterton CMG FRS FAA (4 March 1916 – 8 February 1990) was a British nuclear physicist. A graduate of the University of Birmingham, Titterton worked in a research position under Mark Oliphant, who recruited him to work on radar for the British Admiralty during the first part of the Second World War. In 1943, he joined the Manhattan Project's Los Alamos Laboratory, where he helped develop the first atomic bombs. He eventually became one of the laboratory's group leaders. He participated in the Operation Crossroads nuclear tests at the Bikini Atoll in 1946, where he performed the countdown for both tests. With the passage of the Atomic Energy Act of 1946, known as the McMahon Act, all British government employees had to leave. He was the last member of the British Mission

Februar 1990 in Canberra) war ein britisch-australischer Kernphysiker. Titterton studierte ab 1934 Physik an der University of Birmingham mit dem Bachelor-Abschluss 1936 und dem Master-Abschluss in Physik 1938. Er war Schüler von Mark Oliphant und befasste sich im Zweiten Weltkrieg mit Radarforschung bei der britischen Admiralität. Daraus entstand seine als geheim eingestufte Dissertation, mit der er 1941 promoviert wurde. Danach war er Teil der britischen Mission im Manhattan Project, er leitete in Los Alamos die Sektion Elektronik. Beim Trinity-Test 1945 drückte er den Auslöseknopf für die Explosion der ersten Atombombe und war auch an den ersten Tests auf dem Bikini-Atoll beteiligt.
