Pattern functions used in tomographic reconstruction of photon statistics revisited

Abstract We derive a biorthonormality condition for the pattern functions necessary to reconstruct the photon statistics and reveal their simple structure: They are just the derivative of the product of the usual (normalizable) eigenfunctions and the non-normalizable solutions of the Schrodinger equation of the harmonic oscillator to one and the same energy.
