Abstract

The recent measurement on the decay constant of DsD_s shows a discrepancy between theory and experiment. We study the leptonic and semileptonic decays of DD and DsD_s simultaneously within the standard model by employing a lightfront quark model. There is space by tuning phenomenological parameters which can explain the "fDsf_{D_s} puzzle" and do not contradict other experiments on the semileptonic decays. We also investigate the leptonic decays of D and DsD_{s} with a new physics scenario, unparticle physics. The unparticle effects induce a constructive interference with the standard model contribution. The nontrivial phase in unparticle physics could produce direct CP violation which may distinguish it from other new physics scenarios.
