Heinz Ferdinand Hermann Pose (10 April 1905 – 13 November 1975), best known as Heinz Pose, was a German nuclear physicist and a professor of physics at the Technical University Dresden (TU Dresden).[1]

An early member of the Germany's Uranium Club where he undertook the understanding on the physics of nuclear reactor. After the World War II, Pose accepted an invitation to direct the Laboratory B in Russia and was one of many German nuclear physicists in the Soviet program of nuclear weapons in 1945.: 527 [4]

From 1957 until 1959, he worked in Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna before settling for a professorship in physics in Germany in 1959, eventually heading the faculty at the Technische Hochschule Dresden.
