High energy photons produced in the acceleration regions of strong shocks, such as supernova remnants (SNR) or bow shocks formed by runaway stars, are suggested to have a non-thermal origin. However, the efficiency of these processes is still debated. Here we aim to develop a non-thermal model by appealing to a mixed leptonic-hadronic scenario to explain the observational data obtained from the SN 1006 and the bow shock formed by the runaway star AE Aurigae.
