What will happen if two fermions, like electrons, having the same quantum numbers are brought very close to each other?

If I may elaborate on this for the OP...You can imagine (at least that's how I do it) that each fermion establishes a "zone" around himself in which other fermions are not allowed to enter which is not effect of any force,
A fermion is a type of subatomic particle that makes up the building blocks of matter. Examples of fermions include electrons, protons, and neutrons.
When two fermions come together, they can interact with each other in various ways. This can include exchanging energy or repelling each other due to their electric charges.
No, according to the Pauli exclusion principle, two fermions cannot occupy the same quantum state at the same time. This is why electrons are arranged in different energy levels around an atom's nucleus.
The interaction between two fermions is important in understanding the behavior and properties of matter. It can determine the stability and structure of atoms, as well as how particles behave in extreme conditions such as in a nuclear reactor or a star.
In general, there is no danger in two fermions coming together. However, in some extreme situations, such as in a nuclear explosion, the interaction between fermions can release a large amount of energy, which can be dangerous if not controlled.
