Table 2: Times for the different phases in the evolution of the perturbed jet models. In Cols. 2-4 we show: $t_{\rm lin}$ - end of linear phase (the ratios of amplitudes of the different quantities are not constant any longer), $t_{\rm sat}$ - end of saturation phase (the amplitude of the transverse speed perturbation reaches its maximum), $t_{\rm peak}$ - the peak in the amplitude of the pressure perturbation is reached. (see Fig. 2). Note that, as a general trend, $t_{\rm lin} < t_{\rm sat} \leq t_{\rm peak}$. In Col. 5 we show the saturation time in dynamical time units and in the jet reference frame.
