IUE observations of hydrogen and deuterium in the local interstellar mediumHigh-resolution Ly-alpha spectra of the late-type stars Epsilon Eri, Procyon, Altair, Capella, and HR 1099 taken with the short-wavelength camera on IUE are presented. The density, velocity dispersion, and bulk velocity of the interstellar H I toward each of the stars is derived from the spectra. Lower limits on the deuterium-to-hydrogen ratio toward these stars are obtained.
