Sorption cooling: a valid extension to passive cooling

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2007
Passive cooling has shown to be a very dependable cryogenic cooling method for space missions. Several missions employ passive radiators to cool down their delicate sensor systems for many years, without consuming power, without exporting vibrations or producing electromagnetic interference.
