Measurements of exclusive pp ® NKY reactions with beam momenta in
the range 2.5÷3.2 GeV/c are underway at COSY using the Time-of-Flight spectrometer TOF.
The high granularity of the detector, which covers almost the full phase space, allows to measure
differential distributions and total cross sections as well.
Moreover the hyperon polarization can be studied either with polarized beam
or target. Some preliminary results at different energies are given.
