The production of 
and 
resonances on oxygen nuclei in 16O + p interactions at 3.25A GeV/c was investigated with 4
acceptance. The masses and widths of the resonances were obtained from an analysis of the experimental and background invariant-mass distributions of p
pairs. The fractions of charged pions coming from and decay were estimated. The momentum, kinetic energy, and emission angle distributions of and resonances were reconstructed in the oxygen nucleus rest frame. The slope parameters, T0 , of the reconstructed spectra of invariant cross-sections of and resonances, produced on oxygen nuclei in 16O + p interactions at 3.25A GeV/c , were determined.
