We have searched for axion and light Higgs boson production in the channel Y(1S) → (a0 or h0)+gamma, where the non-interacting axion a0 and the Higgs boson h0 do not decay in the detector. We find no evidence for an axion and give an upper limit, Br(Y(1S) -> a0 gamma) <4.0x10(-5) (90% CL), for long-lived axions. Combining our limit with the previous search in J/Psi decays, we are able to rule out the axion in the standard model with first order QCD corrections.

Abstract
We have searched for axion and light Higgs boson production in the channel Y(1S) → (a0 or h0)+gamma, where the non-interacting axion a0 and the Higgs boson h0 do not decay in the detector. We find no evidence for an axion and give an upper limit, Br(Y(1S) -> a0 gamma) <4.0x10(-5) (90% CL), for long-lived axions. Combining our limit with the previous search in J/Psi decays, we are able to rule out the axion in the standard model with first order QCD corrections. Our Y(1S) data also rule out a Higgs boson with mass m<86 MeV.
