How many neutrinos are in the universe?
There should be in excess of
Although the exact number of neutrinos in the universe is unknown, we can estimate it.
Let us first assume that neutrinos were either created in relatively small quantities or not at all during the Big Bang and that the only particles under consideration are protons and electrons; the amounts of antiprotons and electrons should be equal, but we are left with no explanation for the dominance of matter over antimatter.
The fusion process, in which a proton decays by the weak force into a neutron, a positron, and an electron neutrino, is the source of all neutrons in helium and heavier elements.
As antineutrinos are produced by some radioactive and fusion processes, where a neutron decays into a proton, an electron, and an electron antineutrino, this number is likely low. Neutrinos may have been created at the big bang.

Based on observations and calculations of the cosmic microwave background radiation and the universe's matter density, an estimate of the number of neutrinos in the universe is approximately 330 per cubic centimeter.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
