Abstract
We report the results of a recent likelihood analysis combining the primord ial nucleosynthesis and the BOOMERanG and MAXIMA-1 data on cosmic microwave background radiation anisotropies. We discuss the possible implications fo r relic neutrino background of a high value for the baryonic matter content of the universe, larger than what is expected in a standard nucleosynthesi s scenario.
