We have studied the inclusive production of K/sup asteriskplus-or-minus/(890) and Y/sup asteriskplus-or-minus/(1385) in pp, ..pi../sup +/p, and K/sup +/p interactions at 147 GeV/c. The experiment used the Fermilab 30-inch hydrogen bubble chamber with the hybrid spectrometer system. Results are based on a sample of 1916 observed K/sub S/ and 932 observed ..lambda... Inclusive cross sections are given for K/sup asteriskplus-or-minus/ and Y/sup asteriskplus-or-minus/ production from the three beams, and comparisons are made with experiments at other energies. Feynman-x and transverse-momentum-squared distributions are also calculated. The results suggest that the K/sup asterisk-/ is entirely produced in the central region, while the K/sup asterisk+/ includes a component from beam fragmentation. Comparisons are made with the additive quark model.
