Studies at the Nuclotron in JINR indicate the presence of a previously unknown resonance-like structure in the two-photon mass spectrum in the region of 300–400 MeV/c2, observed in nucleus–nucleus interactions. The goal of this work is to search for such structures in the two-photon mass spectrum in meson–nuclear interactions at a momentum of 7 GeV/c at the Hyperon-M experiment of the U-70 accelerator complex. An upper limit has been established on the ratio of the cross section for the formation of unknown resonance structures to the cross section for the production of \(\eta \)-meson \(\rho ({{R}_{{ \to 2\gamma }}}{\text{/}}{{\eta }_{{ \to 2\gamma }}}) < 3.2 \times {{10}^{{ - 3}}}\) at the 95% confidence level.
