The reactions.K+p --, K*+(890)p, K+p ~K*+ (1420)p and K+p ~ K°& ++ have been systematically studied for eleven incident momenta between 3.0 and 16.0 GeV/c. Cross sections, differential cross sections and density matrix elements are presented. For K*(890) production the contributions from natural and unnatural parity exchanges have also been separated into I = 0 and I = 1 components. Effective trajectories have been extracted in the case of natural parity exchange, and also for &++ production.
