Airman,
Miles posits that charge (photons) are the fundamental drivers of matter and the impetus that creates E/M fields. Per Miles, heat is fundamentally charge density. It is the foundational photonic charge field that creates the motion in 'normal' matter that we then measure as 'heat'. But even that emission of heat from normal matter is an emission of photons (that peak in the near-infrared). It is not so much that vibration increases heat emissions - it is that an increased charge field density creates/increases molecular vibration and atomic throughput of photons which we then measure as increased heat. I agree with your assesment that E/M fields are (currently) only diplayed through ions. But the driving field that creates both is present whether there are ions present or not. Does that help?
