Through an exact analysis, we show the existence of Mpemba effect in an anisotropically driven inelastic Maxwell gas, a simplified model for granular gases, in two dimensions. Mpemba effect refers to the couterintuitive phenomenon of a hotter system relaxing to the steady state faster than a cooler system, when both are quenched to the same lower temperature. The Mpemba effect has been illustrated in earlier studies on isotropically driven granular gases, but its existence requires non-stationary initial states, limiting experimental realisation. In this paper, we demonstrate the existence of the Mpemba effect in anisotropically driven granular gases even when the initial states are non-equilibrium steady states. The precise conditions for the Mpemba effect, its inverse, and the stronger version, where the hotter system cools exponentially faster are derived.

Mpemba effect refers to the counterintuitive result that, when quenched to a low temperature, a system at higher temperature may equilibrate faster than one at intermediate temperatures. This effect has recently been demonstrated in driven granular gases, both for smooth as well as rough hard-sphere systems based on a perturbative analysis. In this paper, we consider the inelastic driven Maxwell gas, a simplified model for a granular gas, where the rate of collision is assumed to be independent of the relative velocity. Through an exact analysis, we determine the conditions under which a Mpemba effect is present in this model. For mono-dispersed gases, we show that the Mpemba effect is present only when the initial states are allowed to be non-stationary, while for bi-dispersed gases, it is present for steady state initial states. We also demonstrate the existence of the strong Mpemba effect for bi-dispersed Maxwell gas wherein the system at higher temperature relaxes to a final steady state at an exponentially faster rate leading to smaller equilibration time.
We demonstrate the existence, as well as determine the conditions, of a Mpemba effect - a counterintuitive phenomenon where a hotter system equilibrates faster than a cooler system when quenched to a cold temperature - in anisotropically driven granular gases. In contrast to earlier studies of Mpemba effect in granular systems, the initial states are stationary, making it a suitable system to experimentally study the effect. Our theoretical predictions for the regular, inverse and strong Mpemba effects agree well with results of event-driven molecular dynamics simulations of hard discs.
This review is a kinetic theory study investigating the effects of inelasticity on the structure of the non-equilibrium states, in particular on the behavior of the velocity distribution in the high energy tails. Starting point is the nonlinear Boltzmann equation for spatially homogeneous systems, which supposedly describes the behavior of the velocity distribution function in dissipative systems as long as the system remains in the homogeneous cooling state, i.e. on relatively short time scales before the clustering and similar instabilities start to create spatial inhomogeneities. This is done for the two most common models for dissipative systems, i.e. inelastic hard spheres and inelastic Maxwell particles. In systems of Maxwell particles the collision frequency is independent of the relative velocity of the colliding particles, and in hard sphere systems it is linear. We then demonstrate the existence of scaling solutions for the velocity distribution function, $F(v,t) sim v_0(t)^{-d} f((v/v_0(t))$, where $v_0$ is the r.m.s. velocity. The scaling form $f(c)$ shows overpopulation in the high energy tails. In the case of freely cooling systems the tails are of algebraic form, $ f(c)sim c^{-d-a}$, where the exponent $a$ may or may not depend on the degree of inelasticity, and in the case of forced systems the tails are of stretched Gaussian type $f(v)simexp[-beta (v/v_0)^b]$ with $b <2$.
The Mpemba effect occurs when two samples at different initial temperatures evolve in such a way that the temperatures cross each other during the relaxation towards equilibrium. In this paper we show the emergence of a Mpemba-like effect in a molecular binary mixture in contact with a thermal reservoir (bath). The interaction between the gaseous particles of the mixture and the thermal reservoir is modeled via a viscous drag force plus a stochastic Langevin-like term. The presence of the external bath couples the time evolution of the total and partial temperatures of each component allowing the appearance of the Mpemba phenomenon, even when the initial temperature differences are of the same order of the temperatures themselves. Analytical results are obtained by considering multitemperature Maxwellian approximations for the velocity distribution functions of each component. The theoretical analysis is carried out for initial states close to and far away (large Mpemba-like effect) from equilibrium. The former situation allows us to develop a simple theory where the time evolution equation for the temperature is linearized around its asymptotic equilibrium solution. This linear theory provides an expression for the crossover time. We also provide a qualitative description of the large Mpemba effect. Our theoretical results agree very well with computer simulations obtained by numerically solving the Enskog kinetic equation by means of the direct simulation Monte Carlo method and by performing molecular dynamics simulations. Finally, preliminary results for driven granular mixtures also show the occurrence of a Mpemba-like effect for inelastic collisions.
The nature of the velocity distribution of a driven granular gas, though well studied, is unknown as to whether it is universal or not, and if universal what it is. We determine the tails of the steady state velocity distribution of a driven inelastic Maxwell gas, which is a simple model of a granular gas where the rate of collision between particles is independent of the separation as well as the relative velocity. We show that the steady state velocity distribution is non-universal and depends strongly on the nature of driving. The asymptotic behavior of the velocity distribution are shown to be identical to that of a non-interacting model where the collisions between particles are ignored. For diffusive driving, where collisions with the wall are modelled by an additive noise, the tails of the velocity distribution is universal only if the noise distribution decays faster than exponential.
