Scientific paper

The authors have combined Copernicus and IUE observations of 5 stars within 50 pc of the Sun to study the ionization of magnesium in the local interstellar medium (LISM). The high resolution Copernicus spectrometer was used to detect interstellar Mg I 2852 in the spectra of α Gru, α Eri, and α Lyr, while placing upper limits on Mg I in the spectra of α CMa and α PsA. Observations of Mg II 2795, 2802 for these stars were also obtained with IUE and Copernicus. The column densities of Mg I and Mg II are used to place constraints on the temperature of the LISM.
