Calculating AP from energy emitting objects

So I'm looking to calculate a feat where a character is basically able to hold a scaled down quasar (here is visual context). I'm assuming the best way to go about this (in terms of AP; LS for resisting the black hole is a whole other feat) is calculating the amount of energy this object would emit, but I think I need a few good examples of accepted calcs which do this. I also have a few questions regarding a feat like this, which I have listed below.

1. For objects with a known level of emission energy (e.g. the Sun, Quasars, etc.), can those simply be scaled down for similar objects of a smaller size, or are there other issues which come into play
2. Is there a way to factor in surface area into something like this. The character holding the Quasar does it in an abnormal way, and while I can get the surface area of their whole body, I doubt I'd be able to accurately determine what parts of their body are actually tanking the energy minus just saying their whole body or MAYBE half.
3. Is there a specific kind of radiation I should look to for a type of energy a character is tanking.
4. Specifically for quasars, is there a difference in tanking the residual energy of accretion disk and the jet?
5. Is there a better way for calculating this type of feat which I'm just not seeing?

Genuinely feeling too lazy to look into this. But maybe I will try...
 
Huh 🤣 Welp, damn me. I joined Vs battle a couple days ago... So I'm really late.
Haha, I appreciate the consideration none the less. If you are interested in Elden Ring stuff still though, I suggest coming and checking out the general discussion thread. Ain't much going on right now, but it's always nice to have new people.

Sure, I'll take a look and check it out.
