Dear Student,

May be you are talking about what happens when a particle and its antiparticle collide. Annihilation takes place when the collide.
Two anti-particles however can interact with each other.
The positron is emitted along with a neutrino. The energy is conserved by the emission of a positron.

Cheers!!

thank u for the answer sir, I wanted to know what the effect of two interacting antiparticles or the effect of their collisions would be....would it be like the same poles of a magnet where repulsion takes place and a tremendous amount of energy is released?
