Using CLUSTER, we investigate different types of electromagnetic fluctuations detected in the plasmasheet in frequency domain ranging from a few millihertz to a few hertz. We compare these observations with results of a theoretical investigation of the electromagnetic propagation in a model current sheet. We show that some of the fluctuations can be interpreted as convected quasi-static 3D deformations of the plasmasheet. We also investigate the possible role of the observed fluctuations in ion heating (oxygen) and their relationship with fast ion flows. One of our goal is to analyse the role of the resonance absorption mechanism in the energization of the plasmasheet.
