Primordial nucleosynthesis is one of the three observational evidences for the Big-Bang model. Even though they span a range of nine orders of magnitude, there is indeed a good overall agreement between primordial abundances of 4 He, D, 3 He and 7 He either deduced from observation or primordial nuc

Observations of QSOs at z $ 5.7-6.4 show the appearance of Gunn-Peterson troughs around z $ 6, and a change in the slope of the IGM optical depth s(z) near z $ 5.5. These results are interpreted as a signature of the end of the reionization era, which probably started at considerably higher redshift
