Description
Massive stars blow powerful winds and eventually explode as supernovae. By doing so, they inject energy and momentum in the circumstellar medium, which is pushed away from the star and piles up to form a dense and expanding shell of gas. Particles can be accelerated at both stellar wind termination shocks and at supernova remnant shocks. I will review these acceleration processes, together with their radiative signatures.
