What is the pull request equivalent in TFS?
I'm asking specifically about cross team collaboration, where there is a team responsible for the product but other teams can work on their own copy and submit "pull requests".
So the core team still owns the product, but other teams can still contribute to it.

Using Pull Requests is built in to TFS and Visual Studio. Pull requests is a mechanism where you explicitly ask the server to merge your changes (commits) into a target branch. You can then set up rules for conditions for merging, and also a set of automatic steps that can be taken.
Create a PR from the Pull requests pageOn the Repos > Pull requests page, select New pull request at upper right. Select the branch with the changes and the branch you want to merge the changes into, such as the main branch. Enter your PR details and create the PR.
Visual Studio 2022 | Visual Studio 2019 | Visual Studio 2017 | Visual Studio 2015. Pull requests (PRs) are a way to change, review, and merge code in a Git repository on Azure Repos. PRs can come from branches within the same repository or from branches in forks of the repository.
A Git pull request is essentially the same as a Git merge request. Both requests achieve the same result: merging a developer's branch with the project's master or main branch. Their difference lies in which site they are used; GitHub uses the Git pull request, and GitLab uses the Git merge request.
There is not really an equivalent (yet).
An external team could branch off the main branch, make their changes, then send an email asking the owning team to merge in the external team's branch into the main branch.
