An orthogonality relation for the Whittaker functions of the second kind of imaginary order, W κ, iμ(x), with μ∈ℝ, is investigated. The integral is shown to be proportional to the sum δ(μ−μ′)+δ(μ+μ′), where δ(μ±μ′) is the Dirac delta distribution. The proportionality factor is found to be π2/[μsinh(2πμ) Γ(1/2−κ+iμ) Γ(1/2−κ−iμ)]. For κ=0, the derived formula reduces to the orthogonality relation for the Macdonald functions of imaginary order, discussed recently in the literature.
