The Global Magneto-Ionic Medium Survey (GMIMS): The brightest polarized
  region in the Southern sky at 75cm and its implications for Radio Loop II
  Using the Global Magneto-Ionic Medium Survey (GMIMS) Low-Band South (LBS)
southern sky polarization survey, covering 300 to 480 MHz at 81 arcmin
resolution, we reveal the brightest region in the Southern polarized sky at
these frequencies. The region, G150-50, covers nearly 20deg$^2$, near
(l,b)~(150 deg,-50 deg). Using GMIMS-LBS and complementary data at higher
frequencies (~0.6--30 GHz), we apply Faraday tomography and Stokes QU-fitting
techniques. We find that the magnetic field associated with G150-50 is both
coherent and primarily in the plane of the sky, and indications that the region
is associated with Radio Loop II. The Faraday depth spectra across G150-50 are
broad and contain a large-scale spatial gradient. We model the magnetic field
in the region as an expanding shell, and we can reproduce both the observed
Faraday rotation and the synchrotron emission in the GMIMS-LBS band. Using
QU-fitting, we find that the Faraday spectra are produced by several Faraday
dispersive sources along the line-of-sight. Alternatively, polarization horizon
effects that we cannot model are adding complexity to the high-frequency
polarized spectra. The magnetic field structure of Loop II dominates a large
fraction of the sky, and studies of the large-scale polarized sky will need to
account for this object. Studies of G150-50 with high angular resolution could
mitigate polarization horizon effects, and clarify the nature of G150-50.
