Exploring the cosmic dark ages with the next generation of space and ground-based facilities
Abstract
This paper reviews our current understanding of the process of re-ionization of the Universe, focusing especially on those models where re-ionization is caused by UV radiation from massive stars. After reviewing the expected properties of stars at zero metallicity, I discuss the properties of primordial HII regions and their observability.
