/ Abstract
The beam properties of low-energy neutrino beams that would be possible at an upgraded 2 MW Fermilab 8 GeV Proton Source are described. In particular three options are considered; (i) a MiniBooNE-like beam using a conventional neutrino horn, (ii) a decay at rest neutrino source, and (iii) a neutrino beam downstream of a solenoid decay channel. In all three cases the fluxes are sufficiently large to provide an interesting physics program. Some physics examples are considered.
