| Abstract: | I discuss the nature of the compact X-ray source in the center of the supernova remnant RCW 103. Several models, based on
the accretion onto a compact object are briefly discussed. I show that it is more likely that the central X-ray source is
an accreting neutron star than an accreting black hole. I also argue that models of a disrupted binary system consisting of
an old accreting neutron star and a new one observed as a 69-ms pulsar are most favored.
