What is quiescence search?
Answer: A
Applying the evaluation function in the middle of an exchange gives nonsense, so the search continues along captures and checks until a stable position is reached and only then evaluates. It costs extra nodes and removes a whole class of blunder. Reduced depth in quiet positions is a different technique, and refusing to evaluate unstable positions without searching them would leave nothing to return. Ensuring that an estimate is applied only where it is valid is a principle that extends well beyond games.
