A pocket of radiation is a place where radiation is highly concentrated.

Found usually around metal objects as metal will store radiation much longer.

When Chernobyl accident toke place, the force of the reactor explosion blasted large amount of debris up in the air, witch came back down around the reactor. This debris is highly radioactive and usually the cause of these Pockets of Radiation.

"Pockets of radiation" refer to localized areas where radiation levels are higher than normal background levels. These can be caused by sources such as nuclear accidents, industrial activities, or naturally occurring radioactive materials. Monitoring and managing these areas is important to protect human health and the environment.
