How about using a wide-figure float and setting the placement to !h
by putting [!h] as raw tex at the start of the float.  I *think* that'll
do what you want.

Long equation in a two-column article

[Matias Freytes]

Hello,
I have a two column article (ieeetrans.cls) and I have a
very long equation. I'd like two span the equation over both
colums:

aa  bb
aa  bb
aa  bb
aa  bb
aa  bb
aa  bb
  my long equation (1)
aa  bb
aa  bb
aa  bb
aa  bb
aa  bb
aa  bb

Any hints?

thanks in advance.
Matias.
