dc.descriptionWe performed an improved search for $ν_μ\to ν_e$ oscillation with the KEK to Kamioka (K2K) long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment, using the full data sample of $9.2 \times 10^{19}$\xspace protons on target. No evidence for a $ν_e$ appearance signal was found, and we set bounds on the $ν_μ\to ν_e$ oscillation parameters. At $Δm^2$ = $2.8 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{eV}^2$, the best fit value of the K2K $ν_μ$ disappearance analysis, we set an upper limit of $\sin^2 2θ_{μe}$ $<$ 0.13 at 90% confidence level.
