We introduce new generalized q-deformed coherent states (q-CS) by replacing the q-factorial of \([n]_q!\) in the series expansion of the classical q-CS by the generalized factorial \(x_n^{q,\alpha }!\) where \(x_n^{q,\alpha }=(1+\alpha q^{n-1})[n]_q\) . We use the shifted operators method based on the sequence \(x_n^{q,\alpha }\) to obtain a realization in terms of Al-Salam–Chihara polynomials for the basis vectors of the Fock space carrying the constructed q-CS. These new states interpolate between the q-CS of Arik–Coon type ( \(\alpha =0\) , \(0<q<1\) ) and a set of coherent states of Barut–Girardello type for the Meixner–Pollaczek oscillator ( \(\alpha \ne 0\) , \(q\rightarrow 1\) ). We also discuss their associated Bargmann-type transforms. As application, we introduce a generalization of the Euler probability distribution and we derive its main statistical parameters.
