Search for C-parity violation in $J/ ψ\to γγ$ and $γϕ$

Using $1.06\times10^8$ $ψ(3686)$ events recorded in $e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 3.686 GeV with the BESIII at the BEPCII collider, we present searches for C-parity violation in $J/ψ\to γγ$ and $γϕ$ decays via $ψ(3686) \to J/ψπ^+π^-$. No significant signals are observed in either channel. Upper limits on the branching fractions are set to be $\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\to γγ) < 2.7 \times 10^{-7}$ and $\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\to γϕ) < 1.4 \times 10^{-6}$ at the 90\% confidence level. The former is one order of magnitude more stringent than the previous upper limit, and the latter represents the first limit on this decay channel.
