conduction
This process is known as conduction, where heat transfers through direct contact between particles. When particles collide, they transfer kinetic energy, causing vibrations that propagate through the material as heat. Materials with higher thermal conductivity allow heat to transfer more efficiently through conduction.

The process that transfers the Sun's energy from particle to particle is called radiation. In this process, energy is transferred in the form of electromagnetic waves, such as light and heat, which travel through the vacuum of space and are absorbed by particles in the Sun's atmosphere and eventually reach Earth.
Conduction is the process that transfers thermal energy through matter directly from particle to particle. This is typically facilitated by collisions between adjacent particles in a solid material, which allows the transfer of kinetic energy.
No. Radiation transfers energy by the propagation of waves within the electromagnetic spectrum and the travel of photons (wave-particle duality). No matter is moved in this process.

pollenation
When hydrogen particles collide, they may undergo fusion reactions where two hydrogen atoms combine to form helium, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This is the process that powers the sun and other stars.
