Radial Density Controls the density of the inferno effect in a radial fashion
from the center of the effect to the edge. Wherever there is white in the
gradient, you only see inferno noise. Where the gradient is black, you can see
the underlying flare. If you set the right side of the gradient to black and the
left side to white, and apply the Inferno to the Glow effect of a flare, the
inferno effect appears toward the outer edges of the glow, while the center of
the glow is still visible.

elements in focus and background elements out of focus.
