Abstract

The functional positive-P representation is proposed to calculate the full quantum dynamics of the atomic and molecular fields. The equation describes the full state of the coupled condensates and includes the spontaneous processes. The process of two-color Raman photoassociation is described by considering a single electronic level for the atomic field and a two-component field for the molecules.
