    "abstract": "Various features of the mass yields in heavy ion collisions are studied. The\nmass yields are discussed in terms of iterative one dimensional discrete maps.\nThese maps are shown to produce orbits for a monomer or for a nucleus which\ngenerate the mass yields and the distribution of cluster sizes. Simple\nMalthusian dynamics and non-linear Verhulst dynamics are used to illustrate the\napproach. Nuclear cobwebbing, attractors of the dynamics, and Lyapanov\nexponents are discussed for the mass distribution. The self-similar property of\nthe Malthusian orbit offers a new variable for the study of scale invariance\nusing power moments of the mass distribution. Correlation lengths, exponents\nand dimensions associated with scaling relations are developed. Fourier\ntransforms of the mass distribution are used to obtain power spectra which are\ninvestigated for a $1/f^{\\beta}$ behavior.",
