Title: Neutrino Oscillations at NuTeV

Abstract: The NuTeV experiment at Fermilab has a novel opportunity to search forneutrino oscillations in separate neutrino and antineutrino beams.The analysis presented here probes neutrinos with energies between 20GeV and 350 GeV and flight lengths between 0.9 km and 1.4 km. Resultsare presented for the search for nu(mu) -> nu(e,tau) and their CPconjugates. In this analysis sensitivity to neutrino oscillationscomes from the fact that nu_mu charged current events produce a finalstate muon which traverses a large distance in the neutrino target,while nu(e) and most nu(tau) charged current events do not and thereforewould produce an excess of neutral-current-like events. No oscillations were found and we present the first limits on nubar(mu) -> nubar(tau), as well as limits on nu(mu) -> nu(e,tau) and nubar(mu)->nubar(e).
