But in terms of absolute energy reaching the Earth, all of the sources

Hi, List,
On the relative strength of solar flares, take a look at:
http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap120315.html
In the first photo, you can see that the Vela Pulsar
is (as usual) the brightest gamma ray source in the
Galaxy. In the second photo, the March 7, 2012 flare
from our little Sun outshines it by a factor of almost
100-fold.
From the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope.
