Caption: Figure 1.

Position of QSO 0102−2209 relative to the cluster A133. Smoothed X-ray emission from Vikhlinin (2013) is shown in purple, while the solid and dashed circles trace R500 and R200, respectively. The position of the quasar is marked by the dotted circle just south of the R500 radius. The extents of the Chandra observations are shown for reference; the border of these observations is highlighted in red at the positions of the filaments identified by Vikhlinin (2013).
