Scientific paper

The advantages of using near-infrared photometry of Cepheids to determine distances to nearby galaxies are now well known. The authors summarize the current state of the infrared period-luminosity (P-L) relations for the Galaxy, the LMC, and the SMC and present composite P-L relations derived from all available photometry. The authors give distance moduli for the LMC and SMC based on these data and briefly report on the status of other work in progress.
