suppression of star formation in a gas disc that is stabilized against collapse by a massive spheroid, letting galaxies turn red without losing gas.

In astrophysics, morphological quenching refers to suppression of star formation in a gas disc that is stabilized against collapse by a massive spheroid, letting galaxies turn red without losing gas. This meaning comes from Martig (2009) in The Astrophysical Journal.[1]
