abstract = "Using a data sample of (1310.6±7.0)×106 J/ψ events taken with the BESIII detector at the center-of-mass energy of 3.097 GeV, we search for the first time for the lepton number violating decay ς-→pe-e- and the rare inclusive decay ς-→ς+X, where X denotes any possible particle combination. The ς- candidates are tagged in J/ψ→ς¯(1385)+ς- decays. No signal candidates are found, and the upper limits on the branching fractions at the 90% confidence level are determined to be B(ς-→pe-e-)<6.7×10-5 and B(ς-→ς+X)<1.2×10-4.",
