Name the scientist, who's son was suspected of being involved in the plot to assassinate Hitler and therefore was executed by the Gestapo?

I'm having a little trouble finding the father's name, but I'll bet the son's name was Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

No sorry,although he was executed also by the Gestapo, he was not the son of a reknown scientist.

The scientist was called Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck and his son was named Erwin.

Yeah, but it was worth a shot
Dietrich's father was a psychiatrist apparently.

Yes, that's the guy I was looking for. Thanx Jenny!

It was an excellent guess Kaelsaxen.I read that D.Bonhoeffer's dad was a medical professor.
