Measurements of the branching fractions of $χ_{cJ}\to ϕϕη, ϕϕη^{\prime}$ and $ϕK^+K^-η$

Using a sample of $(2712.4 \pm 14.3)\times 10^6 ~ψ$(3686) events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we measure the branching fractions of the decays $χ_{cJ}\to ϕϕη,~ϕϕη^{\prime}$, and~$ϕK^+K^-η$ ($J = 0, 1, 2$). The obtained branching fractions are $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0} \to ϕϕη) = (7.40 \pm 0.23 \pm 0.55)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1} \to ϕϕη) = (3.33 \pm 0.14 \pm 0.25)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2} \to ϕϕη) = (5.46 \pm 0.17 \pm 0.40)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0} \to ϕϕη^\prime) = (2.96 \pm 0.23 \pm 0.29)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1} \to ϕϕη^\prime) = (0.69 \pm 0.10 \pm 0.08)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2} \to ϕϕη^\prime) = (0.65 \pm 0.09 \pm 0.07)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0} \to ϕK^+K^-η) = (1.23 \pm 0.08 \pm 0.10)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1} \to ϕK^+K^-η) = (1.00 \pm 0.07 \pm 0.07)\times10^{-4}$, and $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2} \to ϕK^+K^-η) = (1.82 \pm 0.09 \pm 0.14)\times10^{-4}$, where $K^+K^-$ is not from the decay of a $ϕ$ meson, the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The branching fractions of $χ_{cJ}\to ϕϕη$ are measured with precision improved by factors of $1.5-1.9$, and those of $χ_{cJ}\to ϕϕη^\prime$ and $ϕK^+K^-η$ are measured for the first time.

Evidence for the semileptonic decays $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{\pm} π^{\mp} e^+ ν_e$

Using $4.5\, fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between $4.600$ and $4.699\,GeV$, we search for the semileptonic decays $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{+} π^{-} e^+ ν_e$ and $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{-} π^{+} e^+ ν_e$ for the first time. Assuming their branching fractions are equal under isospin symmetry, evidence for $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{\pm} π^{\mp} e^+ ν_e$ is reported with a significance of $3.6σ$. The corresponding branching fraction is measured to be $\mathcal{B}(Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^\pmπ^\mp e^+ν_e) = (7.7^{+2.5}_{-2.3_{\rm stat.}}\pm1.3_{\rm syst.})\times 10^{-4}$, which is consistent with quark model predictions within two standard deviations.

Measurement of the hyperon weak radiative decay $Ξ^0\toγΣ^0$ at BESIII

The hyperon weak radiative decay $Ξ^0\toγΣ^0$ is measured via the process $J/ψ\toΞ^0\barΞ^0$. The absolute branching fraction of $Ξ^0\toγΣ^0$ is determined to be $(3.69\pm 0.21_{\text{stat}}\pm0.12_{\text{syst}})\times 10^{-3}$, based on $(10.087\pm 0.044)\times 10^{9}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider. The decay asymmetry parameter is measured, with a complete angular analysis of the cascade decay chain, to be $α_γ = -0.807\pm 0.095_{\text{stat}}\pm 0.011_{\text{syst}}$.

Observation of the singly Cabibbo suppressed decay $D^0\to b_1(1235)^- e^+ν_e$ and evidence for $D^+\to b_1(1235)^0 e^+ν_e$

By analyzing a data sample of $e^+e^-$ collisions with center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=3.773$~GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $7.9~\rm {fb}^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, we study semileptonic decays of the $D^{0(+)}$ mesons into the axial-vector meson $b_1(1235)$ via the decay $b_1(1235)\to ωπ$. The decay $D^0\to b_1(1235)^-e^{+}ν_{e}$ is observed with a significance of 5.2$σ$ after considering systematic uncertainty, while evidence for the decay $D^+\to b_1(1235)^0 e^+ν_e$ is obtained with a 3.1$σ$ significance. The product branching fractions are determined to be ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to b_{1}(1235)^-e^{+}ν_{e})\times {\mathcal B} (b_1(1235)^-\to ωπ^-) = (0.72\pm0.18^{+0.06}_{-0.08})\times10^{-4}$ and ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to b_{1}(1235)^0e^{+}ν_{e})\times {\mathcal B} (b_1(1235)^0~\to ωπ^0) = (1.16\pm0.44\pm0.16)\times10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The ratio of their partial decay widths is determined to be $\frac{Γ(D^0\to b_{1}(1235)^-e^{+}ν_{e})}{2Γ(D^+\to b_{1}(1235)^0e^{+}ν_{e})}=0.78\pm0.19^{+0.04}_{-0.05}$, which is consistent with unity, predicted by isospin invariance, within uncertainties.

Measurement of branching fractions of $Λ_{c}^{+}$ decays to $Σ^{+} η$ and $Σ^{+} η'$

By analyzing $e^+e^-$ collision data taken at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}$ between 4.600 and 4.699 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $\rm 4.5~fb^{-1}$, we study the hadronic decays $Λ_{c}^{+} \rightarrow Σ^{+} η$ and $Λ_{c}^{+} \rightarrow Σ^{+} η^{\prime}$ using the single-tag method. The branching fraction ratio of $Λ_{c}^+ \rightarrow Σ^+ η$ relative to $Λ_{c}^+ \rightarrow Σ^+ π^0$ is determined to be $0.305 \pm 0.046_{\rm stat.} \pm 0.007_{\rm syst.}$, and that of $Λ_{c}^+ \rightarrow Σ^+ η'$ relative to $Λ_{c}^+ \rightarrow Σ^+ ω$ is $0.336 \pm 0.094_{\rm stat.} \pm 0.037_{\rm syst.}$. The ratio of $\frac{\mathcal{B}\left(Λ_{c}^{+} \rightarrow Σ^{+} η'\right)}{\mathcal{B}\left(Λ_{c}^{+} \rightarrow Σ^{+} η\right)} $ is determined to be $1.73 \pm 0.22_{\rm stat.} \pm 0.16_{\rm syst.}$. These results enrich our knowledge of charmed baryon decays.

Partial Wave Analysis of $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow π^{+}π^{-}J/ψ$ and Cross Section Measurement of $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow π^{\pm}Z_{c}(3900)^{\mp}$ from 4.1271 to 4.3583 GeV

Based on 12.0 $\mathrm{fb^{-1}}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data samples collected by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies from 4.1271 to 4.3583 GeV, a partial wave analysis is performed for the process $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow π^{+}π^{-}J/ψ$. The cross sections for the sub processes ${e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrowπ^{+}Z_{c}(3900)^{-}+c.c.\rightarrowπ^{+}π^{-}J/ψ}$, $f_{0}(980)(\rightarrowπ^{+}π^{-})J/ψ$, and $(π^{+}π^{-})_{\rm{S\mbox{-}wave}} J/ψ$ are measured for the first time. The mass and width of the $Z_{c}(3900)^{\pm}$ are determined to be $3884.6\pm0.7\pm3.3$ MeV/$c^{2}$ and $37.2\pm1.3\pm6.6$ MeV, respectively. The first errors are statistical and the second systematic. The final state $(π^{+}π^{-})_{\rm{S\mbox{-}wave}} J/ψ$ dominates the process $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow π^{+}π^{-}J/ψ$. By analyzing the cross sections of $π^{\pm}Z_{c}(3900)^{\mp}$ and $f_{0}(980)J/ψ$, $Y(4220)$ has been observed. Its mass and width are determined to be $4225.7\pm4.1\pm3.4$ MeV/$c^{2}$ and $57.5\pm9.4\pm12.1$ MeV, respectively.

Measurement of Born Cross Sections and Effective Form Factors of $e^+e^-\to Ω^{-}\barΩ^{+}$ from$\sqrt{s}$ = 3.7 to 4.7 GeV

Using $e^+e^-$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 22.7 fb$^{-1}$, collected at center-of-mass energies between 3.7 and 4.7 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, we measure the energy-dependent Born cross sections of $e^+e^-\to Ω^{-}\barΩ^+$ and the effective form factors of the $Ω^-$ baryon. The analysis employs a single baryon tagging method, and the results are consistent with theoretical predictions, providing critical constraints on the electromagnetic structure of the $Ω^-$ hyperon. No significant signal of charmonium or charmonium-like states decaying to $Ω^{-}\barΩ^+$ is observed in the investigated energy range.

Observation of Charmonium $h_{c}$ Radiative Decays to Multiple Light Hadrons and the Tensor State $f_2(1270)$

Using $ψ(3686)\rightarrow π^{0} h_{c}$ decays from a data sample of $(27.12\pm0.14)\times10^{8}$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, $h_c$ radiative decays to $γπ^{+}π^{-},~γπ^{+}π^{-}η,~\gamma2(π^{+}π^{-})$, and $γp\bar{p}$ are observed for the first time, each with a significance greater than $5σ$. The corresponding branching fractions are measured. Furthermore, intermediate states below 2.8 GeV/$c^{2}$ are investigated, leading to the first observation of the decay process of $h_c\rightarrowγf_{2}(1270)\rightarrowγπ^{+}π^{-}$ with a significance of $5.5\,σ$. This observation represents the first instance of $h_c$ radiative decay to a tensor state.

Test of $CP$ Symmetry in the Neutral Decays of $Λ$ via $J/ψ\toΛ\barΛ$

Using $(10087\pm44)\times10^{6}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector, a full angular distribution analysis is carried out on the process $J/ψ\rightarrowΛ\barΛ\rightarrow nπ^{0}\bar{p}π^{+}+c.c.$ The decay parameters $α_{0}$ for $Λ\rightarrow nπ^{0}$ and $\barα_{0}$ for $\barΛ\rightarrow \bar{n}π^{0}$ are measured to be $0.668\pm0.007\pm0.002$ and $-0.677\pm0.007\pm0.003$, respectively, yielding the most precise test for $CP$ symmetry of neutral decays of $Λ$, $A_{CP}^{0}=(α_{0}+\barα_{0})/(α_{0}-\barα_{0})$, to be $-0.006\pm0.007\pm0.002$. The ratios $α_{0}/α_{-}$ and $\barα_{0}/α_{+}$ are determined to be $0.884\pm0.013\pm0.006$ and $0.885\pm0.013\pm0.004$, where $α_{-}$ and $α_{+}$ are the decay parameters of $Λ\rightarrow pπ^{-}$ and $\barΛ\rightarrow\bar{p}π^{+}$, respectively. The ratios, found to be smaller than unity by more than $5σ$, confirm the presence of the $ΔI = 3/2$ transition in the $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ decays, which is expected to improve the theoretical calculations for strong and weak phases, and $A_{CP}$, in hyperon decays. In all results, the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.

Measurements of the absolute branching fractions of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^+\to K^+π^0$, $D^+\to K^+η$ and $D^+\to K^+η^{\prime}$

Using $20.3\,\rm fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773\,GeV with the BESIII detector, we present the measurements of the absolute branching fractions of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^+\to K^+π^0$, $D^+\to K^+η$ and $ D^+ \to K^+ η^{\prime}$ with the double-tag method, with significantly improved precision compared to the previous measurements. The statistical significance of each signal decay exceeds $10σ$. The branching fractions are determined to be ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to K^+ π^0) = (1.45 \pm 0.06 \pm 0.08)\times 10^{-4}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to K^+ η) = (1.17 \pm 0.10 \pm 0.03)\times 10^{-4}$ and ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to K^+ η^{\prime}) = (1.88 \pm 0.15 \pm 0.11)\times 10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The branching fractions of $D^+\to K^+η$ and $ D^+ \to K^+ η^{\prime}$ are consistent with the world average values. The reported branching fraction of $D^+\to K^+π^0$ deviates with the world average value by 3$σ$.

First observation of $Λ_{c}(2595)^{+} \to Λ^{+}_{c}π^0π^0$ and $Λ_{c}(2625)^{+}\to Λ^{+}_{c}π^0π^0$

By analysing $e^+e^-$ annihilation data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 368.48~pb$^{-1}$ collected at the centre-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s} = 4.918$ and $4.951$~GeV with the BESIII detector, we report the first observation of $Λ_{c}(2595)^{+}$ and $Λ_{c}(2625)^{+}\to Λ^{+}_{c}π^0π^0$ with statistical significances of 7.9$σ$ and 11.8$σ$, respectively. The branching fractions of $Λ_{c}(2595)^{+}$ and $Λ_{c}(2625)^{+}\to Λ^{+}_{c}π^0π^0$ are measured to be $(59.5 \pm 11.1_{\rm stat.} \pm 7.9_{\rm syst.}) \%$ and $(41.0 \pm 5.2_{\rm stat.} \pm 3.3_{\rm syst.}) \%$, respectively. The absolute branching fraction of $Λ_{c}(2595)^{+}$ is consistent with the expectation of the mechanism referred to as the threshold effect, proposed for the strong decays of $Λ_{c}(2595)^{+}$ within uncertainty.

Using an $e^+e^-$ sample of $20.3\,\rm fb^{-1}$ collected at the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=$ 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, we report measurements of several four-body hadronic decays of the $D$ mesons. The absolute branching fractions are determined to be ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to K^0_S K^+K^-π^0 )=( 18.4^{+2.6}_{-2.5}\pm 2.4)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to K^0_S K^0_S K^-π^+ )=( 12.9^{+1.7}_{-1.6}\pm 2.5)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to K^0_S K^0_S K^+π^-)=(5.7^{+1.2}_{-1.1}\pm 1.3)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to K^+K^-K^-π^+ )=(17.4^{+1.8}_{-1.7}\pm { 2.2})\times 10^{-5}$, and ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to K^0_S K^+K^-π^+)=(13.8^{+2.4}_{-2.2}\pm 2.5)\times 10^{-5}$. Furthermore, significant $ϕ$ signals are found in the decay channels involving $K^+K^-$ pair, and the corresponding branching fractions are measured as ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to ϕK^0_Sπ^0 )=( 22.7^{+5.4}_{-5.1}\pm 3.7)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to ϕK^-π^+ )=(25.2^{+3.5}_{-3.3}\pm 4.6)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to ϕK^0_Sπ^+)=(16.5 ^{+6.0}_{-5.3}\pm 2.6 )\times 10^{-5}$. The branching fractions of $D^0\to K^0_S K^+K^-π^0$, $D^0\to ϕK^0_Sπ^0$, and $D^+\to ϕK^0_S π^+$ are measured for the first time, and those of $D^0\to K^0_S K^0_SK^-π^+$, $D^0\to K^0_S K^0_SK^+π^-$, $D^0\to K^+K^-K^-π^+$, $D^0\to ϕK^-π^+$, and $D^+\to K^0_S K^+K^-π^+$ are measured with improved precision. The first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.

No signal is found. An upper limit on the branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(ψ(3686)\to e^{\pm}μ^{\mp})$ is determined to be $1.4\times10^{-8}$ at the 90\% confidence level.

Observation of $D^+\to K^0_Sπ^0μ^+ν_μ$, Test of Lepton Flavor Universality and First Angular Analysis of $D^+\to \bar{K}^\ast(892)^0\ell^+ν_\ell$

We report a study of the semileptonic decays $D^+\to K_S^0π^0\ell^+ν_\ell$ ($\ell = e, μ$) based on $20.3\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector. The $D^+\to K_S^0π^0μ^+ν_μ$ decay is observed for the first time, with a branching fraction of $(0.896\pm0.017_{\rm stat}\pm0.008_{\rm syst})\%$, and the branching fraction of $D^+\to K_S^0π^0e^+ν_e$ is determined with the improved precision as $(0.943\pm0.012_{\rm stat}\pm0.010_{\rm syst})\%$. From the analysis of the dynamics, we observe that the dominant $\bar{K}^\ast(892)^0$ component is accompanied by an $S$-wave contribution, which accounts for $(7.10 \pm 0.68_{\rm stat} \pm 0.41_{\rm syst})\%$ of the total decay rate of the $μ^+$ channel and $(6.39 \pm 0.17_{\rm stat} \pm 0.14_{\rm syst})\%$ of the $e^+$ channel. Assuming a single-pole dominance parameterization, the hadronic form factor ratios are extracted to be $r_V=V(0)/A_1(0)=1.42 \pm\, 0.03_{\rm stat} \pm\, 0.02_{\rm syst}$ and $r_2=A_2(0)/A_1(0)=0.75 \pm\, 0.03_{\rm stat} \pm\, 0.01_{\rm syst}$. Based on the first comprehensive angular and the decay-rate $CP$ asymmetry analysis, the full set of averaged angular and $CP$ asymmetry observables are measured as a function of the momentum-transfer squared; they are consistent with expectations from the Standard Model. No evidence for violation of $μ-e$ lepton-flavor universality is observed in either the full range or the five chosen bins of momentum-transfer squared.

Improved Measurements of $D^+ \to ηe^+ν_e$ and $D^+ \to ημ^+ν_μ$

Using 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the branching fractions of $D^+\to ηe^+ν_e$ and $D^+\to ημ^+ν_μ$ to be $(9.75\pm0.29\pm0.28)\times10^{-4}$ and $(9.08\pm0.35\pm0.23)\times10^{-4}$, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. From a simultaneous fit to their partial decay rates, we determine the product of the hadronic form factor $f^η_+(0)$ and the modulus of the $c\to d$ Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cd}|$ to be $f^η_+(0)|V_{cd}|=0.078\pm0.002\pm0.001$. Taking the $|V_{cd}|$ value from the Standard Model global fit as input, we obtain $f^η_+(0)=0.345\pm0.008\pm0.003$. The ratio between the measured branching fractions of $D^+\toη^+μ^+ν_μ$ and $D^+\toηe^+ν_e$, is determined to be $0.93\pm0.05_{\rm stat.}\pm0.02_{\rm syst.}$, indicating no violation of lepton flavor universality.

Precision Measurement of the Branching Fraction of $D^{+}\to μ^{+}ν_μ$

Using $20.3~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of $E_{\rm c.m.}=3.773$ GeV with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, we determine the branching fraction of the leptonic decay $D^+\toμ^+ν_μ$ to be $(4.034\pm0.080_{\rm stat}\pm0.040_{\rm syst})\times10^{-4}$. Interpreting our measurement with knowledge of the Fermi coupling constant $G_F$, the masses of the $D^+$ and $μ^+$ as well as the lifetime of the $D^+$, we determine $f_{D^+}|V_{cd}|=(48.02\pm0.48_{\rm stat}\pm0.24_{\rm syst}\pm0.12_{\rm input}\pm0.15_{\rm EM})~\mathrm{MeV}$ after taking into account necessary radiative corrections. This result is a factor of 2.3 more precise than the previous best measurement. Using the value of the magnitude of the $c\to d$ Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cd}|$ given by the global standard model fit, we obtain the $D^+$ decay constant $f_{D^+}=(213.5\pm2.1_{\rm stat}\pm1.1_{\rm syst}\pm0.8_{\rm input}\pm0.7_{\rm EM})$\,MeV. Alternatively, using the value of $f_{D^+}$ from a precise lattice quantum chromodynamics calculation, we extract $|V_{cd}|=0.2265\pm0.0023_{\rm stat}\pm0.0011_{\rm syst}\pm0.0009_{\rm input}\pm0.0007_{\rm EM}$.

First Measurement of the $D_s^+\rightarrow K^0μ^+ν_μ$ Decay

We report the first measurement of the semileptonic decay $D^+_s \rightarrow K^0μ^+ν_μ$, using a sample of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $7.33~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected at center-of-mass energies between 4.128 to 4.226~GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The branching fraction of the decay is measured to be $\mathcal{B}(D^+_s\rightarrow K^0μ^+ν_μ) = (2.89 \pm 0.27_{\rm stat} \pm 0.12_{\rm syst})\times 10^{-3}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Based on a simultaneous fit to the partial decay rates in $q^2$ intervals measured in $D^+_s \rightarrow K^0μ^+ν_μ$ and $D^+_s \rightarrow K^0e^+ν_{e}$ decays, the product value of the form factor $f^{K^0}_{+}(0)$ and the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cd}|$ is measured to be $f^{K^0}_{+}(0)|V_{cd}|=0.140\pm0.008_{\rm stat}\pm0.002_{\rm syst}$. Using $|V_{cd}|=0.22486\pm0.00068$ as an input, the hadronic form factor is determined to be $f^{K^0}_{+}(0)=0.623\pm0.036_{\rm stat} \pm 0.009_{\rm syst}$ at $q^2=0$. This is the most precise determination of $f^{K^0}_{+}(0)$ in the $D^+_s \rightarrow K^0$ transition to date. The measured branching fraction and form factor presented in this work provide the most stringent test on various non-perturbative theoretical calculations. Taking $f^{K^0}_{+}(0)=0.6307\pm0.0020$ from lattice calculations as an input, we obtain $|V_{cd}|=0.220\pm0.013_{\rm stat}\pm0.003_{\rm syst}\pm0.001_{\rm LQCD}$, which is the most precise determination of $|V_{cd}|$ using the $D_s^+\rightarrow K^0\ell^+ν_{\ell}$ decays. In addition, lepton flavor universality is tested for the first time with $D^+_s \rightarrow K^0\ell^+ν_{\ell}$ decays in full and separate $q^2$ intervals. No obvious violation is found.

Search for $J/ψ\rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{0}_{S}$ and $ψ(3686)\rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{0}_{S}$

Using data samples of $(10087\pm 44)\times10^{6}$ $J/ψ$ events and $(2712.4\pm 14.3)\times10^{6}$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we search for the CP violating decays $J/ψ\rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{0}_{S}$ and $ψ(3686)\rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{0}_{S}$. No significant signals are observed over the expected background yields. The upper limits on their branching fractions are set as $\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{0}_{S}) <4.7\times 10^{-9}$ and $\mathcal{B}(ψ(3686)\rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{0}_{S}) <1.1\times 10^{-8}$ at the 90% confidence level. These results improve the previous limits by a factor of three for $J/ψ\rightarrow K^{0}_{S} K^{0}_{S}$ and two orders of magnitude for $ψ(3686)\rightarrow K^{0}_{S} K^{0}_{S}$.
