contents We study the recovery of a spatially dependent source in a one-dimensional space-time fractional wave equation using boundary measurement data collected at a single endpoint. The main challenge arises from the fact that the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem do not form an orthogonal system, due to the presence of a fractional derivative in space. To address this difficulty, we introduce a bi-orthogonal basis for the Mittag-Leffler functions and use it to establish uniqueness and Hölder-type stability results, provided the measurement time is sufficiently large. A Tikhonov regularization method is then employed to numerically solve the inverse source problem. Several numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method and to validate our theoretical findings.
