The ISEE 1 and 2 magnetometers are used to examine a current sheet which is moving outward with a velocity of about 17 km/sec, and whose current is flowing into the ionosphere. A wave is traveling along the current sheet, from midnight toward the east, at 400 km/sec. The plasma oscillations normal to the current sheet associated with this wave are sufficient for explaining the amplitude of the electric field oscillations in the plane of the current sheet observed by the University of California's electric field detector. The present oscillating current sheet model explains both magnetic and electric field observations.
