  We find a general class of nontrivial stationary states in inelastic gases
where, due to dissipation, energy is transfered from large velocity scales to
small velocity scales. These steady-states exist for arbitrary collision rules
and arbitrary dimension. Their signature is a stationary velocity distribution
f(v) with an algebraic high-energy tail, f(v) ~ v^{-sigma}. The exponent sigma
is obtained analytically and it varies continuously with the spatial dimension,
the homogeneity index characterizing the collision rate, and the restitution
coefficient. We observe these stationary states in numerical simulations in
which energy is injected into the system by infrequently boosting particles to
high velocities. We propose that these states may be realized experimentally in
driven granular systems.
