contents In the Standard Model, charged lepton flavor violation (CLFV) is heavily suppressed by tiny neutrino mass, while many theoretical models can enhance CLFV effects up to a detectable level. The observation of any CLFV process would be a clear signal of new physics beyond SM. BESIII experiment collected 10 billion $J/ψ$ data and searched for CLFV processes $J/ψ\to eτ$ and $eμ$. The upper limits at the 90% confidence level are determined to be $\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\to eτ)<7.5\times 10^{-8}$ and $\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\to eμ)<4.5\times 10^{-9}$, respectively. Improving the previously experimental limits by two orders of magnitudes, the results are the most stringent CLFV searches in the heavy quarkonium system.
