Using the gamma-ray flare samples of the Sun and 3C 454.3 observed by the Fermi telescope, we investigate the statistical properties of sizes including fluence (energy), peak flux (luminosity), duration time, and waiting time in this work. We find that the cumulative distribution of the fluctuations...
