Here, we report the first search for the JPC=0-- glueball in Υ(1S) and Υ(2S) decays with data samples of (102±2)×106 and (158±4)×106 events, respectively, collected with the Belle detector. No significant signals are observed in any of the proposed production modes, and the 90% credibility level upper limits on their branching fractions in Υ(1S) and Υ(2S) decays are gained. The inclusive branching fractions of the Υ(1S) and Υ(2S) decays into final states with a χc1 are measured to be B(Υ(1S) χc1 +anything)=(1.90±0.43(stat)±0.14(syst))×10-4 with an improved precision over prior measurements and B(Υ(2S) χc1 +anything)=(2.24±0.44(stat)±0.20(syst))×10-4 for the first time.
