The corresponding author of an SCI journal article does not necessarily have to be only one person, 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 accept one corresponding author, if the article lists multiple corresponding authors, the first corresponding author will automatically be selected. For SCI journals that accept two corresponding authors, two corresponding authors can be listed. Other requirements follow the same logic. In other words, the number of corresponding authors listed must comply with the regulations of the target SCI journal. The first author of an SCI paper is the person who has made the greatest contribution to the experiment and writing of the paper, and is the person whose name appears first in the list of authors. However, in cases of collaboration among multiple authors, it is common to have co-first authors. There is no specific rule regarding the number of co-first authors, as it greatly depends on the workload, length of the paper, publication requirements, and institutional recognition. Generally, an SCI paper can have 2-4 first authors as the most common scenario
