High-resolution spectra obtained with the IUE satellite have been used to study the structure and energy balance in the main sequence stars ξ Boo A, α Cen A, α Cen B and ε Eri. The EUV observations are combined with X-ray fluxes to predict the coronal temperatures, the electron pressures and energy lost or transferred by radiation and thermal conduction
