Left: Superposed on a gray‐scale representation of the 4.86 GHz radio continuum Very Large Array map of Ho II are the contour lines of the total (0.1–2.1 keV) X‐ray intensity distribution. The contours start at 3 σ incrementing in steps of 2 σ (angular resolution smoothed to 75﹩\arcsec﹩). Right: Hα map of Ho II superposed by the contour lines corresponding to the total ROSAT energy window, as presented from the left. The available Hα map only covers parts of the region of interest.
