Heat on a microscopic scale is the average kinetic energy of whatever particles are involved; these particles could be atoms, could be molecules, or could be sub-atomic. The kinetic energy in question could be in the form of vibration or could be linear motion. Any kind of motion relates to heat. Fast moving particles are hot, slow moving particles are cold.
