Formation of Pairing Fields in Resonantly Coupled Atomic and Molecular Bose-Einstein Condensates

Abstract
We show that pair correlations may play an important role in the dynamical properties of a Bose-Einstein condensed gas composed of an atomic field resonantly coupled with a condensed field of molecular dimers. Specifically, pair correlations in this system can dramatically modify the coherent and incoherent transfers between the atomic and molecular fields.
