We study rationality questions for the Fano schemes of non-maximal linear spaces on a smooth complete intersection X of two quadrics, especially over non-closed fields. We start by showing that they are all geometrically rational. We then ask their rationality over k and analyze in details the case of second maximal linear spaces. In particular, we generalize results of Hassett-Tschinkel and Benoist-Wittenberg when X has odd dimension, and extend work of Hassett-Koll¨¢r-Tschinkel when X has even dimension and k = R. This is joint work with Lena Ji.
