Abstract

The influence of elastic interparticle interactions on the process of atom-molecule conversion in a Bose condensate has been studied. It is shown that allowance for these collisions can lead to both suppression and enhancement of the amplitude of oscillations in the density of atoms and molecules in the condensate in periodic regimes of conversion.
