a magnetically inactive midplane region of a protoplanetary disc where ionization is too weak for magnetorotational turbulence, so accretion proceeds in surface layers.

In planetary science, protoplanetary disk dead zone refers to a magnetically inactive midplane region of a protoplanetary disc where ionization is too weak for magnetorotational turbulence, so accretion proceeds in surface layers. This meaning comes from Gammie (1996) in The Astrophysical Journal.[1]
