Zusammenfassung: Supernova (SN) explosions disperse the different heavy elements across the Uni verse. These elements are the building blocks which make up the world around and inside us. Supernova remnants (SNRs) are extraordinary astronomical objects that are also of high scientific interest, because they provide insights into aforementioned supernova explosion mechanisms, and because they are important sources of Galac tic cosmic rays (CRs). Radio observations are among the oldest means to study these objects. The radio luminosity and spectra of SNRs, especially young ones, requires active acceleration of electrons by the SNR shocks. In this doctoral dissertation, radio evolution of SNRs is investigated by using three-dimensional hydrodynamic modelling and non-linear diffusive shock acceleration of CRs in SNRs. Hydrodynamic simulations, developed and adopted in this dissertation, allow us to explicitly account for the shock modification by CRs. We also include consistent numerical treatment of magnetic field amplification (MFA) due to CR resonant and non-resonant streaming instabilities. We modelled the peculiar nature of radio evo lution of the youngest known Galactic SNR G1.9+0.3 and concluded that increasing radio emission is a common occurrence among very young SNRs. Our model ena bled us to make important conclusions about the present and predictions about the future properties of radio emission from this SNR. We also developed more general model of the radio evolution of SNRs, by performing simulations for wide range of the relevant physical parameters, such as the ambient density, the supernova ex plosion energy, the acceleration efficiency and the MFA efficiency. We confirm the reliability of our radio evolutionary tracks on a observation sample consisting of Galactic and extragalactic SNRs. This dissertation also deals with one of the most important questions surroun ding our current understanding of the magnetic fields in SNRs. We conclude that equipartition is a justified assumption especially between the CR electrons and the magnetic fields in evolved SNRs, in the Sedov-Taylor phase of evolution. Our work also offers a possible explanation how can equipartition between CRs and magnetic field in the interstellar medium be achieved. Type of modeling, presented in this thesis, is expected to be a useful tool for fu ture observers working on powerful radio telescopes such as ALMA, MWA, ASKAP, SKA and FAST. Simulations should provide important information about the evolu tionary stage of the observed SNRs, as well as to characterize the physical conditions in the shocks where the relativistic particles are accelerated. Simulations could help us to predict the science output of future large scale surveys, as well as to explain new, often unexpected results obtained by observations.
