disown

disown is a shell built-in command used to remove jobs from the shell's job control. When you start a process in the background (using &), the shell keeps track of it. If you close the terminal, the shell usually sends a SIGHUP signal to these background processes, which often causes them to terminate. disown removes a process from this job control, preventing the shell from sending that signal when the terminal closes, allowing the process to continue running independently.
