Short summary

We built an instrument to measure reactive nitrogen compounds in the atmosphere with a focus on the detection of nitrate radicals. They are formed by pollutants such as ozone and nitrogen oxides and are an important nocturnal oxidant of trace gases, thereby indirectly impacting the interconversion of reactive nitrogen and air quality. The instrument’s characterization, performance assessment and the first field deployment are presented.
