 <abstract>In 80th a new type of APDs with negative local feedback which significantly 
reduces the excess noise factor introduced by the avalanche process - the 
metal-resistive layer-semiconductor (MRS) APDs - were developed in INR 
(Moscow) by Sadygov et al. in the frameworks of the Soviet DUMAND program 
led by M.A. Markov.
In 90th and during a few last years some new kinds of the Micro-pixel 
Avalanche PhotoDiodes (MAPDs), which have high signal gain (up to 10^6), 
were developed in INR and JINR (Dubna, Moscow region).
The novel MAPDs with high photon detection efficiency and very good single 
electron resolution which were produced and tested by "Dubna APD" 
collaboration (JINR - INR - IP AZ - "Zecotek" Company - "Mikron" factory) are 
described. 
Sensitive area of a MAPD--------------------------   1 mm^2, 4 mm^2 and 9 mm^2;
Spectral range of sensitivity ---------------------    250-650 nm;
Photon detection efficiency (max.) -------------     20-30 %;
Operating voltage -----------------------------------  ~100 V.
The excellent parameters of MAPDs are achieved due to forming an electric field 
with a specific geometry in the multilayer silicon structure, which ensures the 
localization of the avalanche processes and limits them to the micro regions 
(micro-pixels) with a diameter of 3 - 30 micron depending of the design.  
The multi channel modules of a mosaic type on the basis of MAPDs with the 
above mentioned (and improved!) parameters have a high potential for using 
as key  elements for light detection in fields of Astronomy, Cosmic Ray Physics 
and Astroparticle Physics. Application of MAPDs  in space imaging detectors 
observing the UV flashes in the atmosphere caused by ultra high energy cosmic 
ray particles (and other phenomena) is of special interest.</abstract>
