Secondary contributions to the anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), such as the integrated Sachs–Wolfe (ISW) effect, the thermal Sunyaev–Zel’dovich (tSZ) effect, and the effect of gravitational lensing, have distinctive non-Gaussian signatures, and full descriptions therefore require information beyond that contained in their power spectra. The Minkowski Functionals (MF) are well-k...
