Brain zaps are a sensation of some sort of electrical current running through your skull. They're very distracting and unpleasant. 17 days out I'm still feeling them, although nowhere as strong or as often as the first week off the drug. According to the studies, they're not serious, but there's no definite explanation for why they occur. The condition seems to be common but not universal among those seeking to quit the drug.
