    abstract = "This paper reports results from a search for nu(mu) -> nu(e) transitions
by the MINOS experiment based on a 7 x 10(20) protons-on-target
exposure. Our observation of 54 candidate nu(e) events in the far
detector with a background of 49.1 +/- 7.0(stat) +/- 2.7(syst) events
predicted by the measurements in the near detector requires 2sin(2)(2
theta(13))sin(2)theta(23) < 0.12(0.20) at the 90% C.L. for the normal
(inverted) mass hierarchy at delta(CP) = 0. The experiment sets the
tightest limits to date on the value of theta(13) for nearly all values
of delta(CP) for the normal neutrino mass hierarchy and maximal sin(2)(2
theta(23))."
