Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 240601 (2004) [4 pages]Exactly Solvable Model for Driven Dissipative SystemsReceived 23 July 2004; published 7 December 2004 We introduce a solvable stochastic model inspired by granular gases for driven dissipative systems. We characterize far from equilibrium steady states of such systems through the non-Boltzmann energy distribution and compare different measures of effective temperatures. As an example we demonstrate that fluctuation-dissipation relations hold, however, with an effective temperature differing from the effective temperature defined from the average energy. © 2004 The American Physical Society URL:
