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