Noob question. What is zeta?
When you hit level 80, you'll be able to get omega mats. You can use these (3 or 5, depending on the ability) to upgrade many abilities to level 8, which is usually a big boost or even an added ability (QGJ, for example, instantly becomes a good rancor toon once you put an omega on his basic.)
Zetas are the next level up of ability material. Many characters have level 8 abilities that require 20 zeta mats. These abilities are often total game changers. Some create an amazing squad out of thin air: Finn and resistance are nothing special until you put a zeta on Finn's leadership—then they become beasts that will tear through GW, TB, and many arena teams on offense (provided you also have Poe and Resistance Trooper).
But zetas are awfully slow to get. You need to get five 4* DS ships to get 5* executrix so you can unlock the zeta ability challenge. Then the drop rate is so slow that it may take you a couple months to get 20 of them. So they're rare, but often amazing. (But beware the occasional super lame zeta ability.)
