RGB image of G288.8–6.3 as seen in the eROSITA all-sky surveys eRASS:5. Photons to produce the image were color-coded according to their energy (red for energies 0.2–0.7 keV, green for 0.7–1.2 keV, blue for 1.2–2.4 keV). An adaptive kernel smoothing algorithm was applied to the images in each energy band. Radio contour lines (green: 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, and 1 mJy beam−1) are overlaid to mark the outline of G288.8–6.3. The positions of the neighboring radio pulsar PSR J1036–6559 and the Fermi source 4FG J1028.7–6431c are shown.
