Reionisation

Reionization refers to the partial neutralization of neutral gas in a previously ionized plasma, typically occurring after the universe had become mostly neutral around 380,000 years after the Big Bang. This process is responsible for the restoration or partial restoration of free electrons and hydrogen ions (protons) into neutral atoms, contrary to the state after the initial Big Bang where the universe was ionized.

Reionization

Reionization, also known as reionization of the intergalactic medium (IGM), refers to the process by which the universe's gas that was neutral after the Big Bang (which occurred around 380,000 years after the Big Bang) gradually recombination-ionized as a result of galaxies emitting UV radiation that interacted with this gas. In other words, in the early universe, the gas filling the space between galaxies was ionized by the cosmic microwave background radiation from the Big Bang. However, as the universe expanded and cooled, the gas recombined, becoming neutral. This neutrality continued until galaxies began to form and emit UV radiation, which reionized the gas surrounding them. The process of reionization likely happened in two stages: the first stage occurred when the first stars formed and exploded as supernovae, releasing heavy elements, such as iron and helium; the second stage occurred when the first quasars (very luminous distant galaxies) formed and began to release large amounts of UV radiation. Reionization had significant impacts on the universe, including the end of the cosmic density of 'cold dark matter' and, eventually, the emergence of a transparent IGM. Observations indicate that reionization finished around 1 billion years after the Big Bang.
