Does radiation transfer thermal energy when particles move from one place to another?

Radiation transfers thermal energy when photons move from one place to another. Defining a photon as a particle begs a question which many physicists are still agonising over.
Pace any string theorists reading this, but the question is still open.

What is the form of thermal transfer that does not require matter?
Energy transfer by radiation.
What energies can thermal energy transfer into?
one energy that thermal energy can transfer into is radiation energy. It can transfer into that because of the electromagnetic waves.
Is thermal energy transferred through conduction convection or radiation?
thermal energy can transfer through conduction, convention and radiation
What is the transfer of thermal energy in waves without matter?
radiation
Transfer of thermal energy by movement of particles?
There are 3 ways for heat/thermal energy to transfer through the movement of particles. First, Conduction: where particles bump into each other and "pass on" the heat. Second, Convection: where warm particles rise up and cool particles drop to fill the space therefore forming a convection cycle of renewable heat. Third, radiation: where particles itself gives off excess heat to any other particles that may either absorb it or bounce it back
What is the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves?
The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves is called electromagnetic radiation. Light, radio waves and X-rays are a few other examples of this radiation phenomenon. The Transfer process is the "flow" of particles from one location to another. The best visual example is the transfer of "heat" from one source to another.

What is heat transfer by radiation?
All objects transfer thermal energy by infra-red radiation. The hotter an object is, the more infra-red radiation it gives off. No particles are involved in radiation, unlike conduction and convection. This means that thermal energy transfer by radiation can even work in space, but conduction and convection cannot. One good example is the sun. Even though it is millions of kilometers away in space, we can still feel its heat. The thermal energy is transferred by electromagnetic waves.
What is similar to heat radiation?
