Scientific paper

We will present the first densely sampled, full phase coverage mid-infrared light curves for Large Magellanic Cloud Cepheids, observed by IRAC in the Spitzer Warm Mission. Using this sample, we will discuss the properties of the time-averaged 3.6 and 4.5 micron Period-Luminosity relations (Leavitt Law) for these stars. Implications of a mid-infrared based Cepheid PL relation for the extragalactic distance scale as a whole will also be outlined.
