Résumé

We present a short review devoted to some scientific achievements in the physics of Earth’s magnetotail current sheets based on results of Geotail, Interball and Cluster missions. The structure and dynamics of very thin current sheets (TCSs) that are often observed at the night side of the Earth’s magnetosphere are discussed in details. The development of theoretical ideas and models, stimulated by numerous experimental findings in the terrestrial (and other) magnetospheres, outlined to formulate the state of the art in this field of physics in the “pre-THEMIS” era.
