Abstract
We present a short review of the general principles of constructing tomograms of quantum states. We derive a general tomographic reconstruction formula for the quantum density operator of a system with a dynamical Lie group. In the reconstruction formula, the multiplicity of irreducible representation in Clebsch–Gordan decomposition is taken into account. Various approaches to spin tomography are discussed. An integral representation for the tomographic probability is found and a contraction of the spin tomogram to the photon-number tomography distribution is considered. The case of SU(3) tomography is discussed with the examples of quark states (related to the simplest triplet representations) and octet states.
