Observations of SNRs in X-ray and gamma-ray bands promise to contribute with important information in our understanding of the kinematics of charged particles and magnetic fields in the vicinity of strong non-relativistic shocks and, therefore, on the nature of galactic cosmic rays. Here we investigate some properties of synchrotron and inverse-Compton emission from SNRs expanding through non-uniform interstellar magnetic field. We perform 3-D MHD simulations of a spherical SNR shock, and synthesize the synchrotron radio, X-ray and inverse-Compton gamma-ray images, making different assumptions about the details of acceleration and injection of relativistic electrons. We compare the distribution of surface brightness derived with our model in these three bands with those observed by VLA, Chandra and HESS in SN 1006.
