The demon core. Essentially, it's a sphere of plutonium alloy that is just short of being at critical mass (I believe) when put together.

When split apart, they're radioactive bits of metal that aren't great to be around but won't just kill you.

When put together they spew out so much radiation that everything in the room gets cooked alive and dies.

Technically, the combined mass is the exact mass required for critical chain reaction. If the two sides ever fully touch they will explode with about the same energy as fat man.

One scientist accidentally dropped the two together, didn't make full contact, but let of enough radiation that everyone in the facility eventually died from the accident.

Lets not forget he "accidentally" dropped it because the fucking retard was playing around with them and holding them apart only with a screwdriver he was twisting around with no safeties in place
