Bose-Einstein correlations between charged pion and K+ pairs are calculated using the space-time and four-momentum distributions from relativistic quantum molecular dynamics for 200 GeV/nucleon 32S+Pb and compared to pion correlation measurements from two CERN experiments. Good agreement is found. The predicted apparent radii from the K+ correlation functions are smaller than the corresponding pion radii.
