We have presented the results of a second epoch of global Very Long Baseline
Interferometry observations, taken on 23 February 2001 at a wavelength of 18
cm, of the central kiloparsec of the nearby starburst galaxy Messier 82. These
observations were aimed at studying the structural and flux evolution of some
of the compact radio sources in the central region that have been identified as
supernova remnants. The objects 41.95+575 and 43.31+592 have been studied,
expansion velocities of 2500 +/- 1200 km/s and 7350 +/- 2100 km/s respectively
have been derived. Flux densities of 31.1 +/- 0.3 mJy and 17.4 +/- 0.3 mJy have
been measured for the two objects. These results are consistent with
measurements and predictions from previous epochs.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures. To be published on the accompanying CD of the
