This contribution gives a very short overview on the emission of supernova remnants and the processes that are responsible for both the thermal and non-thermal origins of the emission, typically observed in radio, X-rays, and up to gamma-rays. We discuss in particular the case of the Galactic SNR CTB 109. As detailed X-ray studies combined with observations in radio have shown, CTB 109 is interacting with a giant molecular cloud complex. The interaction of the SNR shock with dense interstellar clouds is responsible for both the unusual semi-circular morphology of the SNR and the bright X-ray feature inside the SNR, and, as has been shown recently, seems also to play a major role in the production of gamma-rays.Downloads
