abstract = "{Recent results of the LARASE research program in terms of model
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 and the physical characteristics of the
satellites in order to be correctly accounted for. In the field
of gravitational measurements, we present a new measurement of
the relativistic Lense-Thirring precession with a 0.5\%
precision. In this measurement, together with the relativistic
effect we also estimated two even zonal harmonics coefficients.
The uncertainties of the even zonal harmonics of the
gravitational field of the Earth have been responsible, until
now, of the larger systematic uncertainty in the error budget of
this kind of measurements. For this reason, the role of the
errors related to the model used for the gravitational field of
the Earth in these measurements is discussed. In particular,
emphasis is given to GRACE temporal models, that strongly help
to reduce this kind of systematic errors.}",
