Through thick or thin: multiple components of the magneto-ionic medium towards the nearby H ii region Sharpless 2โ€“27 revealed by Faraday tomography

Sharpless 2-27 (Sh2-27) is a nearby ${\rm H\,{\small II}}$ region excited by $\zeta$Oph. We present observations of polarized radio emission from 300 to 480$\,$MHz towards Sh2-27, made with the Parkes 64$\,$m Radio Telescope as part of the Global Magneto-Ionic Medium Survey. These observations have an angular resolution of $1.35^{\circ}$, and โ€ฆ
