The authors acknowledge financial support from DGES (Spain) Grant Nº BFM-2001 0291.The solutions of the homogeneous nonlinear Boltzmann equation for inelastic Maxwell models, when driven by different types of thermostats, show, in general, overpopulated high energy tails of the form similar toexp(-ac), with power law tails and Gaussian tails as border line cases. The results are compared with those for inelastic hard spheres, and a comprehensive picture of the long time behavior in freely cooling and driven inelastic systems is presented.engjournal articlehttp://pre.aps.org/pdf/PRE/v65/i4/e040301http://pre.aps.org/open access536Granular fluidsEquationsMediaStateTermodinámica2213 Termodinámica
