A family of generalized binomial probability distributions attached to Landau levels on the Riemann sphere is introduced by constructing a kind of generalized coherent states. Their main statistical parameters are obtained explicitly. As an application, photon number statistics related to coherent states under consideration are discussed. 1. Introduction The binomial states BS are the field states that are defined as a finite linear superposition of field number states weighted by a binomial counting probability distribution 1, 2. Precisely, these states are labeled by points z of the Riemann sphere S2 ≡ C ∪ {∞}, and are of the from 2B 1/2 −B
