$\begin{figure} \par\includegraphics[width=8.4cm,clip]{1779fig1.ps} \end{figure}$ Figure 1: The Parkes image (colour) of RX J0852.0-4622 overlaid with ROSAT PSPC contours (E>1.3 keV). The synthesized beam of the Parkes observations is 5' (lower left corner) with an rms noise (1 $\sigma$ ) of 10 mJy. X-ray contours (white) are 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2, 2.3, 2.6 and 3 in units of 10^-4ROSAT PSPC counts s^-1 arcmin^-2 (Filipovic 2001).

North is up and east is to the left. The white cross marks the position of the point source CXOU J085201.4-461753.
