appending column file

Hi all,
I have two files with the same number of lines
the first file is a.dat and looks like
0.000 1.000
1.000 2.000
...
the fields are tab separated

the second file is b.dat and looks like
1.2347 0.546
2.3564 0.321
...
the fields are tab separated

I would like to have a file c.dat which is
0.000 1.000 1.2347 0.546
1.000 2.000 2.3564 0.321
