What type of energy transfers occurs even when matter isn't present?

Electromagnetic Energy does not require matter to be transferred...that is why it can travel through the vacuum of space.

How is heat transfer by radiation different form heat transfer by convection and conduction?

Radiation requires neither contact (through which conduction transfers heat) nor mass flow or movement (through which convection transfers heat). Only radiation can take place in a vacuum. Convection and conduction both require a material medium for the heat transfer to occur. Only radiation can transfer thermal energy through the vacuum of space.


In a vacuum there is no matter. do you think conduction can take place in vacuum?

Conduction cannot occur within a vacuum because it requires a substrate (i.e. matter) for energy to be transferred.
