Abstract
We discuss long-baseline neutrino oscillations in the framework of the two 4-neutrino schemes which can accommodate all existing neutrino os cillation data. Negative results of short-baseline reactor and acceler ator experiments allow us to obtain rather strong bounds on the long-b aseline <(nu)over bar>(e) --> <(nu)over bar>(e) and <((nu))over bar>(m u) --> <((nu))over bar>(e) transition probabilities. We consider in de tail matter effects and show that the vacuum bounds are not substantia lly modified. We also comment on corresponding bounds in 3-neutrino sc enarios.
