This article is devoted to the detection of parameters in anomalous diffusion from a single passive measurement. More precisely, we consider the simultaneous identification of coefficients as well as a time-dependent source term appearing in a time-fractional diffusion equation from a single boundary or internal passive measurement. We obtain several uniqueness results in dimension one as well as a multidimensional extension under some symmetry assumptions. Our analysis relies on spectral representation of solutions, complex and harmonic analysis combined with some known inverse spectral results for Sturm-Liouville operators. The theoretical results are complemented by a corresponding reconstruction algorithm and numerical simulations.
