Early dust in the galaxy structure formation opens up the possibility that “Normal” but intense star formation occurred in the first large galaxies.Normal: molecular H
2 formation on dust.
Here, we focus on z = 20 to 5 “dark age” period, preceding the IR bright, star formation peak at z = 3-1

Early reionisation suggested by WMAP
● TE correlation at low l suggests Reionisation redshift of z
i= 15
● Pop III stars are likely the source of the UV ionizing radiation field
● Could also produce some dust that will disseminate in the intergalactic medium (SNe and stellar winds can expel matter from low mass galactic halos).
● UV and dust altogether make an infrared background, which is computed here, that can be constrained by FIRAS Cosmic Infrared Background.
● Elaboration on early works by e.g. Bond,Carr,Hogan '91

Dust Production and Destruction
• Assumes a fraction (~0.1) of the baryons consumed in stars re-emerges as dust. The UV background implies a baryon consumption rate (36 eV/ 7 MeV baryons for one UV photon)
• Empirical lifetime is introduced based on (limited) knowledge of the Milky Way (0.1 Gyr)

Planck (August 2007)should help find small scale structure of this submillimetre background.Component separation on HFI maps could yield an unambiguous trace of early dust in the reionization period.

Consequences
• This early dust can provide the seeds for the formation of molecules
• These molecules will then make the star formation efficient at z = 1-3, the major star producing event in the Universe.
• Planck will put strong constraints on this scenario (submillimetre capabilities of HFI).
• In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is. (Chuck Reid)
