Answer: Astronomical phenomena involving a star and a black hole
Notes: An international team of astronomers recently observed AT 2023clx, the nearest Tidal Disruption Event (TDE) to Earth. TDEs happen when a star comes too close to a supermassive black hole, torn apart by tidal forces. The resulting debris falls onto the black hole, emitting radiation that indicates a TDE's occurrence. This international team's multi-wavelength observations enhance our understanding of these celestial events.
