as the projection in the photosphere of the shear angle A$. In the case of highly inclined field configurations,the shear angle A$ is approximatelyequal to the angular shear, Ad. For the active region studied, the shear angle A$ gives a better and neater correspondencewith flare activities and a clearer explanation of the non-potential features than what A4 does. Key words: Sun - magnetic field - non-potentiality UBVRI photometric observations of supernova 19935 AApS 13/3 (1993) 295-296 ZHOU Xu, ZHENG Zhong-yuan and WU Hong (Beijing Astronomical Observatory) This short note provides our observations of SN1993J from April 7 to 29. The U, B, V, R, I photometry is obtained with Ford 2048 x 2048 CCD attached to SO/90 cm Schmidt telescope in Xinglong Station of Beijing Astronomical Observatory. The field size of the CCD image is about one square degree. Key words: supernova -SN1993J-photometric A study of the supernova SN1993J AApS 13f3 (1993) 297-298 HU Jing-yao, WANG Li-fan and JIANG Xiao-jun (Beijing Astronomical Observatory) LI Zong-wei (Beijing Normal University) Continuous spectrosscopic observation of SN1993J have been conducted in Beijing Observatory’s 2.16 meter telescope. We discuss in this letter the data obtained form April 7 to May 5, 1993. Investigations of the time evolution of the various absorption and emission lines show that the supernova debris is not spherically symmetric. Possible structures are discussed.

This fact indicates that there is a close association between SXR flares and microwave bursts. Such result can be interpreted by the physical process that a strong enough nonthermal electron beam injected downward from the microwave source (at the top of a flare loop) into the chromosphere is able to cause the chromospheric evaporation due to collision heating, the evaporated chromospheric plasma with superhot temperature T.(z 10’ K) moves upwards along the flare loop and emits SXR radiation. As the flare loop is filled with superhot plasma, the SXR emission reaches the peak flux. Thus the peak flux of SXR emission appears often later than that of microwave burst.
