Abstract

First, measurements of K*(892) ^± mesons production properties and their spin alignment in ν _μ charged current (CC) and neutral current (NC) interactions are presented. The analysis of the full data sample of the NOMAD experiment is performed in different kinematic regions. For K* ⁺ and K* ⁺ mesons produced in ν _μ CC interactions and decaying into K TV we have found the following yields per event: (2.6±0.2 (stat.) ± 0.2 (syst.))% and (1.6±0.1 (stat.) ±0.1 (syst.))% respectively, while for the K* ⁺ and K* ⁺ mesons produced in νNC interactions the corresponding yields per event are: (2.5± 0.3 (stat.)±0.3 (syst.))% and (1.0±0.3 (stat.) ±0.2 (syst.))%. The results obtained for the ρ ₀₀ parameter, 0.40±0.06 (stat.) ± 0.03 (syst.) and 0.28±0.07 (stat.) ±0.03 (syst.) for K*(892) ⁺ and K*(892) ^- produced in ν _μ CC interactions, are compared to theoretical predictions tuned on LEP measurements in e ⁺ e ^- annihilation at the Z ⁰ pole. For K*(892) ⁺ mesons produced in νNC interactions the measured ρ ₀₀ parameter is 0.66±0.10 (stat.) ±0.05 (syst.).
