16. When the reactive constant is sufficiently large (For instance for the number of agents N = 101, the reactive constant Γ = 10 is sufficiently large.), the oscillatory state is stable for very long time which is much longer than the typical relaxation time in our model (See Figure 1). This can be easily confirmed by numerical simulation
