I'm having trouble coming up with an accurate translation of the last part of this passage.

La salma del Pontefice composta e rivestita degli abiti pontificali, ma senza la mitra e la croce, è stata prima vegliata per l'intera notte nella Cappella privata mentre tanti fedeli non avevano lasciato la Piazza. Nella Cappella alle ore 9.00 ha avuto luogo la Recognitio, alla presenza di un ristretto numero di persone, che ***all'atto formale uniscono la preghiera.***

when the Recognition is being performed, they join in single prayer

"atto formale" refers to that of the Recognitio, hence the recognition formality.
