Özet

We have studied the period-luminosity (P-L) relationships of oxygen-rich semiregular (SR) variables in several wavelength bands using Hipparcos parallaxes with an accuracy of better than 10 per cent. We have shown that there is a clear dependence on period of absolute magnitude in the U, B, V, R, I C, J, H, K, L, M, N, [12], [25], [60] and [100] bands, and that the slope of the linear M-lambda - logP relation is a smooth function of wavelength. We point out that this relation can in principle be used to derive absolute bolometric magnitude as a function of period.
