Abstract
Using as an illustration cryogenic detectors, I discuss a few innovative ideas that resulted in significant progress in sensitivity. After presenting the main classes of sensors, I summarize the impact of cryogenic detectors on Dark Matter, one of the outstanding questions in astroparticle physics and cosmology. I briefly review some applications in astrophysics and other fields.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.

If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
