Abstract

The cosmological abundance of nucleons determined from considerations of Big Bang nucleosynthesis allegedly provides compelling evidence for non-nucleonic dark matter. Recent developments in measurements of primordial light element abundances, in particular deuterium and helium, require reexamination of this important issue. The present situation is uncertain but exciting.
