TL;DR: In this paper, upper limits on neutrino oscillation parameters are presented for mixing of the kind {nu}{sub e}{leftrightarrow,nu-sub {mu}, i{ne}{mu}.
Abstract: No evidence for neutrino oscillations is seen in our experiment which observed neutrinos from muon-decays at rest. Upper limits on oscillation parameters are presented for neutrino mixing of the kind {nu}{sub e}{leftrightarrow}{nu}{sub {mu}} and also of the kind {nu}{sub e}{leftrightarrow}{nu}{sub i}, i{ne}{mu}.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that there is no evidence that any two-body decay mode in which a photon is emitted decays with probability > 0.11, where M..nu../sub..mu../ is the mass of the muon neutrino in eV and tau is the lifetime in seconds.
Abstract: We find no evidence for ..nu../sub ..mu../ or anti ..nu../sub ..mu../ decays for any two-body decay mode in which a photon is emitted. The 90% confidence level limit which we set is tau ..nu../sub ..mu../M..nu../sub ..mu../ > 0.11, where M..nu../sub ..mu../ is the mass of the muon neutrino in eV and tau ..nu../sub ..mu../ is the muon neutrino lifetime in seconds.
