On the nature of the K*2(1430), K*3(1780), K*4(2045), K*5(2380) and K*6 as K*--multi-rho states

We show that the $K^*_2(1430)$, $K^*_3(1780)$, $K^*_4(2045)$, $K^*_5(2380)$ and a not yet discovered $K_6^*$ resonance are basically molecules made of an increasing number of $ρ(770)$ and one $K^*(892)$ mesons. The idea relies on the fact that the vector-vector interaction in s-wave with spins aligned is very strong both for $ρρ$ and $K^*ρ$. We extend a recent work, where several resonances showed up as multi-$ρ(770)$ molecules, to the strange sector including the $K^*(892)$ into the system. The resonant structures show up in the multi-body scattering amplitudes, which are evaluated in terms of the unitary two-body vector-vector scattering amplitudes by using the fixed center approximation to the Faddeev equations.
