Nothing official, unless you count the official definition of diameter
being all the way across the circle, and a radius being half way....

But as for if it's a "burst" (damn CCGs) effect, or just a way to describe
the power... try and figure the intent of the author.  Does arson create an
explosion (Boom) or just an area effect sheet of flame (flamethrower)?

Again, without the book, is sounds like Arson fills an area with fire, and
doesn't create a boom.
