Abstract :
21 cm tomography promises to shed light on the formation of the first stars, galaxies, and black holes in the coming years. A number of radio interferometers are already taking data in an effort to detect the diffuse HI signal during the epoch of reionization using statistical measures such as the power spectrum.
