contents In this paper, we study the homogeneous inelastic Boltzmann equation for hard spheres. We first prove that the solution $f(t,v)$ is bounded pointwise from above by $C_{f_0}\langle t \rangle^3$ and establish that the cooling time is infinite $T_c = +\infty$ under the condition $f_0 \in L^1_2 \cap L^{\infty}_{s}$ for $s > 2$. Away from zero velocity, we further prove that $f(t,v)\leq C_{f_0, |v|} \langle t \rangle$ for $v \neq 0$ at any time $t > 0$. This time-dependent pointwise upper bound is natural in the cooling process, as we expect the density near $v = 0$ to grow rapidly. We also establish an upper bound that depends on the coefficient of normal restitution constant, $α\in (0,1]$. This upper bound becomes constant when $α= 1$, restoring the known upper bound for elastic collisions [8]. Consequently, through these results, we obtain Maxwellian upper bounds on the solutions at each time.
