Abstract
Nonlinear dynamics in the solar wind and cometary plasma over small ti me scales are identified using sensitive entropy measures of the weak wave organization in the magnetic field polarized components. All poss ible linear Gaussian stochastic models are rejected at a high confiden ce level in all cases. The association of the detected correlations wi th a forward CIR shock is demonstrated using a large set of very high- resolution Pioneer-10 field measurements.
