Abstract

We update our previous results by increasing the luminosity, the efficiency, and for the D+ sthe number of tags. We determine f D+= (205.8 ± 8.5 ± 2.5) MeV, and an interim preliminary value of fD + s = (267.9 ± 8.2 ± 3.9) MeV, where both results are radiatively corrected. We agree with the recent most precise unquenched Lattice- QCD calculation for the D+, but are in disagreement for the D+ s . Several consequences are discussed, including the possibility of physics beyond the Standard Model.
