  We predict a huge anisotropic thermal magnetoresistance (ATMR) in the
near-field radiative heat transfer between magneto-optical particles when the
direction of an external magnetic field is changed with respect to the heat
current direction. We illustrate this effect with the case of two InSb
spherical particles where we find that the ATMR amplitude can reach values of
up to 800% for a magnetic field of 5 T, which is many orders of magnitude
larger than its spintronic analogue in electronic devices. This thermomagnetic
effect could find broad applications in the fields of ultrafast thermal
management as well as magnetic and thermal remote sensing.
