T. 2010 Long Period Variables as tracers of Galactic Structure Distances to a large sample of long period variables are derived using a PL-relation and a 3D model for the reddening. Their use as a tracer of galactic structure is discussed. Highlights of Astronomy 15 2010 812-812 http://esoads.eso.org/abs/2010HiA....15..812G published in NONREF
