摘要

Spaceborne particle detectors occupy a nonnegligible place in basic science research programs. With the general increase of activity in space, and the development of the space industry, the interest in particle detection has become multidisciplinary. The emergence of the notion of space weather is an illustration. The renewed interest of the high-energy physics community in cosmic-ray observation offers new perspectives for detectors. The latest methods and instrumentation developed for particle detection at accelerators have been proposed for a new generation of devices. The current trends are indicated by a brief review of existing, past, and proposed detectors.
