Previous results on the stability of steady shock layer solutions of scalar reaction‐advection‐diffusion equations are strengthened by means of a more detailed treatment of the perturbation inside the shock. These sharper results verify a recent conjecture of Embid, Goodman, and Majda on the asymptotic stability of a standing shock in a diverging duct, and they suggest that a study of analogous questions for systems of conservation laws with dissipation is possi
