A 1% Measurement of the Gravitomagnetic Field of the Earth with Laser-Tracked Satellites

A 1% Measurement of the Gravitomagnetic Field of the Earth with Laser-Tracked Satellites

A new measurement of the gravitomagnetic field of the Earth is presented. The measurement has been obtained through the careful evaluation of the Lense-Thirring (LT) precession on the combined orbits of three passive geodetic satellites, LAGEOS, LAGEOS II, and LARES, tracked by the Satellite Laser R...
