ABSTRACT: We ask the question if a formula for entropy, as given by with a usual value ascribed of initial entropy of the onset of inflation can allow an order of magnitude resolution of the question of if there could be a survival of a graviton from a prior to the present universe, using typical Planckian peak temperature values of . We obtain values consistent with up to 1038 gravitons contributing to an energy value of if we assume a relic energy contribution based upon each graviton initially exhibiting a frequency spike of 1010 Hz. The value of is picked from looking at the aftermath of what happens if there exists a quantum bounce with a peak density value of [1] in a regime of LQG bounce regime radii of the order of magnitude of meters. The author, in making estimates specifically avoids using ,by setting the chemical potential for ultra high temperatures for reasons which will be brought up in the conclusion.
