This report forms part of a study of neutrino mixing in a search for possible violation of conservation laws. Electron and positron tracks were distinguished from nu /sub e/) and (nu bar /sub e/) charged current interactions in a large bubble chamber filled with a neon-hydrogen mixture. No evidence was seen for neutrino-antineutrino oscillations in the CERN SPS wide band neutrino beam. Upper limits were established for oscillation parameters, majoron emission and lepton number violating pi and k decays.
