Abstract
[en] This master thesis is focused on the non-thermal emission of supernova remnants, and especially on their synchrotron radio emission. Several physical parameters of a carefully selected sample of supernova remnants are determined through a dedicated method and discussed. Subsequently, this same method is applied after a data processing in the radio domain for two supplementary ones, with physical parameters extracted thanks to the obtained radio image. Finally, one of them is analyzed in the high-energy domain, to see if non-thermal processes and especially synchrotron radiation extends up to this range of energies.
