Abstract
It has been demonstrated that a quantum state of a broadband single-photon electromagnetic field can be detected and verified by recording the intensity of superradiance of an atomic ensemble governed by non- Wiener dynamics. Under these conditions, the collective relaxation of atoms in the Dike model into vacuum is completely suppressed and only the interaction of the external field with atoms generates a superradiance pulse proportional to the square of the number of atoms. In the case of a single-photon wave packet in a classical state prepared by weakening a broadband source of a family of independent coherent modes, incoherent emission of the same ensemble occurs with the intensity proportional to the number of atoms.
