Supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 has exhibited the largest surface brightness and a detailed spectral and shell-type morphology, and is one of the brightest TeV sources. The recent H.E.S.S. observation of RX J1713.7-3946 revealed a broken power-law GeV-TeV gamma-ray and a more extended gamma-ray spatial radial profile than in the X-ray band. Based on the diffusion shock acceleration model, we solve spherically symmetric hydrodynamic equations and particle transport equations, and investigate the multi-band non-thermal emission of RX J1713.7-3946 and radial profiles of its surface brightness for two selected zones in the leptonic scenario for gamma-ray emission. We found (1) the diffusion coefficient has a weak energy dependence, and the Kolmogorov type is favored; (2) the magnetic field strength can vary linearly or nonlinearly with radius for different surrounding environments because of possible turbulence in the shock downstream region, and compressional amplification is likely to exist at the shock front; (3) the non-thermal photons from radio to X-ray bands are dominated by synchrotron emission from relativistic electrons if the GeV-TeV gamma-rays are produced by inverse Compton scattering from these electrons interacting with the background photons; then the X-ray and gamma-ray radial profiles can be reproduced except for the more extended gamma-ray emission.
