Abstract:In soft X-rays, the Monogem ring is an object with a diameter of 25{deg} located in the Galactic anti-centre. It is believed to be a faint, evolved, local supernova remnant. It is not seen at radio wavelengths, as other large supernova remnants are. We study a narrow about 4.5D long, faint Halpha-filament, G203.7+11.5, that is seen towards the centre of the Monogem ring. It causes depolarisation and excessive Faraday rotation of radio polarisation data. Polarisation observations at 11cm and 21cm with the Effelsberg 100-m telescope were analysed.
