Resumo

We have searched for the exclusive decay of the $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S)$ into a photon and a short-lived spin-0 particle, $a$, decaying into ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, using the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. Upper limits for the product branching ratio $B(\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}a)B(a\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}})$ are established for a range of masses, $2{m}_{e}<{m}_{a}<2{m}_{\ensuremath{\mu}}$.
