If you quantum teleport an atom onto another, would it fuse?
SeventhSandwich:
Nuclear fusion is literally what you're describing. All particles in the universe can be described as a probability wave function, meaning in places like the center of the sun, it's possible for the attraction between hydrogen nuclei to quantum-tunnel through the electron cloud and combine together into helium. In other words, two hydrogen atoms 'luck out' and have their nuclei at the same place at the same time.
There's a great minute physics video about this

Thats not how any of this works
To fuse 2 atoms together you need allot of energy (in this context, heat) and even the temperature of the loving sun isnt enough because the sun cheats by using its own gravity. Eventually the atoms are so active (aka move very fast) the force to repel eachother isnt hard enough and they smash together throwing out an electron or neutron or whatever the forgettron releasing energy
Or something
Refticus:
use super glue to fuse them together

the forces between the smallest units of matter are stronger than imaginable

im gonna big bang ur mom lol
