  The NuMI beam at Fermilab produces a high-intensity neutrino beam for neutrino oscillation experiments. Since the start of 2005, NuMI has been delivering beam to the MINOS experiment. Greater than 2x10[20] 120 GeV protons have been delivered to the neutrino production target, with a peak power of 320 kW being achieved. This note reports on the status and operation of the beam and its technical components, including the target, horns, and instrumentation.

  The CNGS project (CERN Neutrinos to Gran Sasso) aims at directly detecting muon neutrinos-tau neutrinos oscillations. An intense muon- neutrinos beam is generated at CERN and directed towards LNGS (Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso) in Italy where tau-neutrinos will be detected in large and complex detectors. An overview of the CNGS beam facility is given. Results from the primary and secondary beam line commissioning performed in summer 2006 are presented. Measurements are compared with expectations.
