- We present a measurement of the radiative decay $η\toπ^0γγ$ using 82 million $η$ mesons produced in $e^+e^-\toϕ\toηγ$ process at the Frascati $ϕ$-factory DA$Φ$NE. From the data analysis $1246\pm133$ signal events are observed. By normalising the signal to the well-known $η\to3π^0$ decay the branching fraction ${\cal B}(η\toπ^0γγ)$ is measured to be $(0.98\pm 0.11_\text{stat}\pm 0.14_\text{syst})\times10^{-4}$. This result agrees with a preliminary KLOE measurement, but is twice smaller than the present world average. Results for $dΓ(η\toπ^0γγ)/dM^2(γγ)$ are also presented and compared with latest theory predictions.
