Multiscaling in Inelastic Collisions,
E. Ben-Naim and P.L. Krapivsky
We study relaxation properties of two-body collisions on the
mean-field level. We show that this process exhibits multiscaling
asymptotic behavior as the underlying distribution is characterized
by an infinite set of nontrivial exponents. These nonequilibrium
relaxation characteristics are found to be closely related to the
steady state properties of the system.
