I've always wondered about this- I thought it would result in atomic fusion and a massive explosion, but I'm no real scientist. Still, you'd think that any two atoms co-existing at the same point would be pretty unhappy, even if they weren't a volatile material like Uranium 235 or whatever it is...
Most science-fiction examples of it show the two things merging together into a single object- is that likely? There's supposed to be a lot of space between atoms I suppose, but could there be that much leeway?
Any real input anyone has on this is greatly appreciated.
