I didn't understand what "group" was in your notation. When you
say "specify another vector", what exactly did you mean---a parameter,
data, or what?
Can you write out the model in mathematical terms, specifically what
you want mu to be in
mu = ln_r0 + ln_biomass + bT*temp;
ln_rate ~ normal(mu, sigma);
Translating to Stan shouldn't be a problem.

P.S. We're shutting this list down in a week or two; the list

You'll find more people there now than here to answer your question.

You just need to code up the linear predictor. So I'm not sure what
you're having problem with doing this. I also have problems with
words like "factor" because it's all tied up with stats terminology I never
understood and R conventions.
