The Zhang Citation Apocalypse

The Zhang Citation Apocalypse
The academic reality hits Homer Simpson hard as he's surrounded by a sea of research papers authored by "Zhang" in every direction! This perfectly captures the experience of physics grad students and researchers drowning in literature reviews where seemingly half the papers come from Chinese researchers named Zhang (one of China's most common surnames). The "Zhang et al" label is the final punchline - because when you've read your 15th Zhang paper that day, they all start to blur together into one massive collaborative effort. The rapid rise of China as a physics powerhouse means Western researchers are frantically trying to keep up with the absolute torrent of publications coming from Chinese institutions. Homer's bewildered expression is every physicist who's ever muttered "wait, is this Zhang the same Zhang from that other paper?" while updating their bibliography at 2am.
