We first apply the perturbative formulae of Minkowski functionals up to second-order NG derived by Matsubara (2010), which enable us to give limits on cubic NG parametrized with tau_NL and g_NL as well as various types of quadratic NG parametrized with f_NL. We find no signature of primordial NG in WMAP 7-year data, but give constraints on the local-type, equilateral-type, orthogonal-type f_NL: f_NL(loc)=20+-42, f_NL(eq)=-121+-208, f_NL(ort)=-129+-171, respectively, "},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1207.1183","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
