Abstract

With new 6 cm observations we confirm the self-similar expansion of SN 1993J previously discovered at 3.6 cm and estimate the expansion deceleration parameter. The results are inconsistent with the existence of a constant pre-explosion stellar wind but otherwise confirm the standard radio supernova model. The first map at 13 cm showing shell structure is also presented.
