V'yacheslav Vasilovich Danilenko (Ukrainian: Выячеслав Васильович Даниленко; born January 10, 1935)[1] is a Ukrainian[2] physicist who specializes in the nanodiamonds, which he gained expertise during his time in the former Soviet program of nuclear weapons.[3][4]
In 2011, the IAEA investigators and the investigative report by the Washington Post leveled serious allegations on him as a "foreign expert" and accused him of being a central figure in the nuclear program of Iran after the Soviet collapse in 1991.[5][6]
