We present a systematic study of particle transport by diffusion in young pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe). We selected nine bright sources that are well resolved with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. We analyzed archival data to obtain their radial profiles of photon index (\(\Gamma\)) and surface brightness (\(\Sigma\)) in a consistent way. These profile...
