We consider the steady states of a driven inelastic Maxwell gas consisting of two types of particles with scalar velocities. Motivated by experiments on bilayers where only one layer is driven, we focus on the case when only one of the two types of particles are driven externally, with the other species receiving energy only through inter-particle collision. The velocity $v$ of a particle that is driven is modified to $-r_w v+eta$, where $r_w$ parameterises the dissipation upon the driving and the noise $eta$ is taken from a fixed distribution. We characterize the statistics for small velocities by computing exactly the mean energies of the two species, based on the simplifying feature that the correlation functions are seen to form a closed set of equations. The asymptotic behaviour of the velocity distribution for large speeds is determined for both components through a combination of exact analysis for a range of parameters or obtained numerically to a high degree of accuracy from an analysis of the large moments of velocity. We show that the tails of the velocity distribution for both types of particles have similar behaviour, even though they are driven differently. For dissipative driving ($r_w<1$), the tails of the steady state velocity distribution show non-universal features and depend strongly on the noise distribution. On the other hand, the tails of the velocity distribution are exponential for diffusive driving ($r_w=1$) when the noise distribution decays faster than exponential.

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 inelasti c 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.
The granular gas is a paradigm for understanding the effects of inelastic interactions in granular materials. Kinetic theory provides a general theoretical framework for describing the granular gas. Its central result is that the tail of the velocity distribution of a driven granular gas is a stretched exponential that, counterintuitively, decays slower than that of the corresponding elastic gas in equilibrium. However, a derivation of this result starting from a microscopic model is lacking. Here, we obtain analytical results for a microscopic model for a granular gas where particles with two-dimensional velocities are driven homogeneously and isotropically by reducing the velocities by a factor and adding a stochastic noise. We find two universal regimes. For generic physically relevant driving, we find that the tail of the velocity distribution is a Gaussian with additional logarithmic corrections. Thus, the velocity distribution decays faster than the corresponding equilibrium gas. The second universal regime is less generic and corresponds to the scenario described by kinetic theory. Here, the velocity distribution is shown to decay as an exponential with additional logarithmic corrections, in contradiction to the predictions of the phenomenological kinetic theory, necessitating a re-examination of its basic assumptions.
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 g ases, 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 study experimentally the particle velocity fluctuations in an electrostatically driven dilute granular gas. The experimentally obtained velocity distribution functions have strong deviations from Maxwellian form in a wide range of parameters. We h ave found that the tails of the distribution functions are consistent with a stretched exponential law with typical exponents of the order 3/2. Molecular dynamic simulations shows qualitative agreement with experimental data. Our results suggest that this non-Gaussian behavior is typical for most inelastic gases with both short and long range interactions.

The problem of one-dimensional randomly forced Burgers turbulence is considered in terms of (1+1) directed polymers. In the limit of strong turbulence (which corresponds to the zero temperature limit for the directed polymer system) using the replica technique a general explicit expression for the joint distribution function of two velocities separated by a finite distance is derived. In particular, it is shown that at length scales much smaller than the injection length of the Burgers random force the moments of the velocity increment exhibit typical strong intermittency behavior.
