In the context of a two-flavour approximation we reinterpret the published NOMAD limit on nu(mu) --> nu(tau) oscillations in terms of nu(e) --> nu(tau) oscillations. At 90% C.L. we obtain sin2(2)theta(e tau) < 5.2 X 10(-2) for large Delta m(2), while for sin2(2)theta(e tau) = 1 the confidence region includes Delta m(2) < 11 eV(2)/c(4).

Abstract
In the context of a two-flavour approximation we reinterpret the published NOMAD limit on nu(mu) --> nu(tau) oscillations in terms of nu(e) --> nu(tau) oscillations. At 90% C.L. we obtain sin2(2)theta(e tau) < 5.2 X 10(-2) for large Delta m(2), while for sin2(2)theta(e tau) = 1 the confidence region includes Delta m(2) < 11 eV(2)/c(4).
