Greetings
I thought about the question of determining the true IP address of the user by the TOR network. Is it possible to know? If possible, is there publicly available information on this issue? If it is impossible to know, then why?

Well, offhand - you can make an onion resource, lure a user there, if there is a contact with him, add elements on the resource itself, like a 1x1 picture from the regular Internet.

Place your own nodes around the world.
The more nodes you have, the more likely it is.
The NSA does just that.

You can, but with a lot of reservations. For example, to lure a user to a site where a certain component is loaded from another site, also controlled, so that the user's browser allows traffic to bypass the Tor.
Finding out the real IP of the person who entered is a serious task, and as in any "battle of armor and projectile" iterations are constantly going on there :)
