Abstract
A proposal is made for testing symmetrization postulate (SP) for photo ns in the context of cavity QED. In the scheme sequences of two Lambda -type three-level atoms are sent through a cavity filled with a cohere nt field. After Raman-type interactions, the atoms are state-selective measured. The two atoms would be detected in the same state when the SP holds. The probability that the two atoms are found in different st ates characterizes the violation of the SP.
