Scientific paper

The improved performance of cryogenic detectors has drastically enhanced their utilization range, allowing a number of space-based applications, with particular emphasis on astronomical observations. In this paper we provide an overview of the main applications of cryogenic detectors onboard spacecraft, together with a description of the key technologies and detection techniques used or being considered for space science missions. A summary of the cryogenic instrumentation technologies is also presented. Possible instruments for future astrophysics space missions are also discussed, using X-ray Evolving Universe Spectroscopy mission, presently proposed by ESA as a post XMM-Newton project as a reference.
