STAFF experiment is one of the five experiments which constitute the Cluster Wave Experiment Consortium (WEC). STAFF consists of a three-axis search coil magnetometer to measure magnetic fluctuations at frequencies up to 4 kHz, a wave form unit (up to either 10 Hz or 180 Hz) and a spectrum analyzer (up to 4 kHz) (Cornilleau-Wehrlin et al, 1997). The spectrum analyzer combines the 3 magnetic components of the waves with the two electric components measured by EFW to calculate in real time the 5  5 Hermitian cross-spectral matrix at 27 frequencies distributed logarithmically in the frequency range 8 Hz to 4 kHz. The time resolution varies between 0.125s and 4s. Different tools have been prepared (Cornilleau et al., 2000), specific to the Cluster related studies. The first results presented will show the capabilities of the experiment in different key regions of the magnetosphere-solar wind system encountered by Cluster, using different specific tools.
