Scientific paper

In this study modern methods for the search of strange attractor structures with low dimension to space plasmas are applied. Together with an estimation of the correlation dimension an estimation of the largest Liapunov exponent and the development of the reliable criteria for the exclusion of pseudochaotic dynamics caused by colored noises are included. The use of these methods in the analysis of magnetospheric and solar wind data gives strong evidence for low-dimensional chaotic dynamics. In particular, findings indicate a magnetospheric strange attractor with a fractal dimension of about 3.5 and a solar wind strange attractor with a fractal dimension of about 4.5.
