Short summary
Molecular singlet oxygen (1O2*) is the first excited state of O2 and is produced when sunlight excites light-absorbing molecules in aerosols in the atmosphere. 1O2* can drive oxidation reactions and impact aerosol properties. This study is an inter-comparison of photoreactors, light sources and data analysis across 3 atmospheric chemistry laboratories, yielding a critical assessment of practices and recommendations for intercomparing 1O2* measurements and extrapolating to ambient particles.
