N2 - Using (2712.4±14.3)×106 휓(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, the decay 휂푐→훾훾 in 퐽/휓→훾휂푐 is observed. We determine the product branching fraction ℬ(퐽/휓→훾휂푐)×ℬ(휂푐→훾훾)=(5.23±0.26stat±0.30syst)×10−6. This result is consistent with the lattice QCD calculation (5.34 ±0.16) ×10−6 from HPQCD in 2023. By using the world-average values of ℬ(퐽/휓→훾휂푐) and the total decay width of 휂푐, the partial decay width Γ(휂푐 →훾훾) is determined to be (11.30±0.56stat±0.66syst±1.14ref) keV, which deviates from the corresponding world-average value by 3.4휎.
