K/sup +/ mesons produced by the internal proton beam of Saturne have been identlfied by means of scintillation and Cherenkov counters. The production cross sections are given per target nucleus measured at a laboratory angle of 35 deg as well as the cross section relative to approximately /sup +/ of the same momentum for incident protons of kinetic energy between 1.3 and 2.8 Bev. targets of C, Cu and Pb, and K/sup +/ produced with kinetic energies between 0.45 and 0.65 Bev. From those results the importance of indirect production by intermediate pi mesons with respect to direct production by proton-nucleon collisions is deduced. (auth)
