We have studied muon-produced hadrons from a deuterium target. The structure functions and the charge ratios are reported for neutrons; the transverse momentum and azimuthal distributions are reported for deuterons. The structure function for the neutron is similar to that of the proton. The charge ratio of produced hadrons follows the expectation of a simple spin-1/2 quark model. Transverse-momentum results agree with those at lower energy and are similar to those from hadron--hadron interactions. No azimuthal anisotropy is seen. (AIP)
