Scientific paper

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous events in the universe. Their high luminosities make them detectable even at the edge of the visible universe. Recent observations suggest that GRBs are associated with massive stellar collapses. Thus GRBs probably occurred at the beginning of the universe. We discuss some possibilities to study the era of the first generation of stars (first stars) by using such GRBs in the distant universe. In particular, we show that GRBs can reveal the reionization history of the universe.
