【 摘 要 】

Integrability of electron dynamics in one dimension is manifested by the nonequilibrium stationary states. They emerge near a point contact coupling two quantum Hall edges with different chemical potentials. I use the nonequilibrium bosonization technique to show that the effective temperature of such states at the fractional quantum Hall edges has a universal linear dependence on the current through the contact. In contrast, the temperature at eventual equilibrium scales as the square root of the power dissipating at the point contact. I propose to use this distinction to detect these intriguing nonequilibrium states.
