Abstract

We present the results of a search for neutrino oscillations at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. The experiment searched for the appearance of e (»e), 1 km from the source of a wide-band (») beam. The experiment used a total of 3×1019 protons on target from the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. The data collecting was split evenly between positive and negative horn polarities, corresponding to neutrino and antineutrino beams. No excess of e or »e over the expected backgorund was detected. The 90%-confidence-level limits obtained are m2*0.075 eV2 for maximal mixing, and sin22*0.003 for large m2.
