Recent results of the LARASE research program in terms of models improvements and relativistic measurements are presented. In particular, the results regarding the development of new models for the non-gravitational perturbations that affect the orbit of the LAGEOS and LARES satellites are described and discussed. These are subtle and complex effects that need a deep knowledge of the structure of the satellite and of its physical characteristics in order to be correctly accounted for. In the field of gravitational measurements, we introduce a new and precise measurement of the relativistic Lense-Thirring precession. The role of the errors related to the knowledge of the gravitational field of the Earth in this kind of measurements is also discussed. Finally, the main results in relativistic measurements and constraints obtained during the last few years by means of the laser tracking of passive satellites are summarized. The key role of the Satellite Laser Ranging technique in these activities is highlighted, together with the sinergy it produces between space geodesy and fundamental physics measurements. |
