Here we report the discovery of the protocluster LAGER-z7OD1 at a redshift of 6. 93, when the Universe was only 770 million years old and could be experiencing rapid evolution of the neutral hydrogen fraction in the intergalactic medium.

We present a systematic search for periodic light curves in 625 spectroscopically confirmed quasars with a median redshift of 1. 8 in a 4. 6 deg$^2$ overlapping region of the Dark Energy Survey Supernova (DES-SN) fields and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Stripe 82 (SDSS-S82).
