Abstract
The cosmological redshift is treated as the loss of units of quantized energy by the photon travelling through a nonzero energy vacuum, and the quantum characteristics of the Metagalaxy are deduced. Particles are created from the vacuum, appearing as confined waves of quantized energy in a system with quantum characteristics. A model of energy circulation in an equilibrium universe is discussed, and hypotheses to explain the stability and energy production of neutron stars and other astrophysical objects are advanced.
