Spurious Correlations between Galaxies and Multiepoch Image Stacks in the DESI Legacy Surveys

A nonnegligible source of systematic bias in cosmological analyses of galaxy surveys is the on-sky modulation that is caused by foregrounds and variable image characteristics, such as observing conditions. Standard mitigation techniques perform a regression between the observed galaxy density field...
