The A(e,e'K+)YX reaction has been investigated in Hall C at Jefferson Laboratory for 6 different targets. Data were taken for Q2ࣈ 0.35 and 0.5 GeV2 at a beam energy of 3.245 GeV for 3H, 2H, 2He, C and Al targets. The missing mass spectra are fitted with Monte Carlo simulations taking into account the production of Lambda and Sigma0 hyperon production off the proton, and Sigma- off the neutron. Models for quasifree production are compared to the data, excess yields close to threshold are attributed to FSI. Evidence for Lambda-hypernuclear bound states is seen for
3,4He targets.

Keywords: Electroproduction of strangeness; Nuclear targets; Spectral function
