Abstract

The cosmic dawn and epoch of reionization mark the time period in the universe when stars, galaxies, and black hole seeds first formed and the intergalactic medium changed from neutral to an ionized one. This white paper outlines the current state of knowledge, anticipated scientific outcomes in the 2020s and scientific goals for new facilities
