The number of corresponding authors for SCI journal articles is not necessarily limited to one, and there is no fixed standard for how many there can be. This is because different SCI journals have different policies regarding the number of corresponding authors. For SCI journals that only recognize one corresponding author, if a paper has multiple corresponding authors, the first corresponding author will be automatically selected. For SCI journals that recognize two corresponding authors, two corresponding authors can be listed. Other requirements follow the same logic. In other words, the number of corresponding authors written by the authors must comply with the regulations of the target SCI journal. The first author of an SCI paper is the person who made the greatest contribution to the experiments and article writing, and is the person listed first in the author column. However, in collaborative projects, there may be cases of co-first authors. There is no clear rule on the number of co-first authors, and it depends greatly on the workload, length of the paper, regulations of the publishing journal, and recognition by the institution. Generally, 2-4 first authors in an SCI paper is the most common
