The nonthermal X-rays from the SNR1006 NE rim present characteristic scale lengths that are interpreted in the context of diffusion of a relativistic electron. The adopted theoretical framework is the mathematical diffusion in 3D, 1D and 1D with drift as well as the Monte Carlo random walk in 1D with drift. The asymmetric random walk with diffusion from a plane can explain the scale widths of 0.04 pc upstream and 0.2 pc downstream in the nonthermal intensity of X-ray emission in SNR1006. A mathematical image of the nonthermal X-flux from a supernova remnant as well as profiles function of the distance from the center can be simulated. This model provides a reasonable description of both the limbs and the central region of SNR1006. A new method to deduce the magnetic field in supernova remnants is suggested.
