Approved for the University Committee on Graduate Studies.iii iv Acknowledgements Doctoral dissertation research is meant to be an individual endeavor, an original contribution to the pool of human knowledge. High energy physics in the past twenty years however has developed into a science where results can come only from the cooperative efforts of many researchers, and where an individual, especially a graduate student must rely on the knowledge and help of many colleagues, friends, and fellow scientists.First and foremost I thank my adviser, Rafe Schindler, who incessantly tried to pass on to me his profound knowledge in particle physics, and to make me understand the important aspects of scientific research. Especially in the last few month, when I was writing this thesis, I learned to appreciate the always open door to his office and the experience with which he guided me through this process. I'm most grateful that I have had the opportunity to work with and learn from him, and I hope that I can show in the future that his teachings have fallen on fertile soil.

“…Once the absolute value of f Ds is measured with an accuracy of 10% or better, one would feel more confident about the predictions of the decay constants Experiment Channel fD s (MeV) WA75 [12] Ds → µ 232 ± 45 ± 52 CLEO I [13] Ds → µ 344 ± 37 ± 52 ± 42 CLEO II [14] Ds → µ 280 ± 19 ± 28 ± 34 E653 [15] Ds → µ 194 ± 35 ± 20 ± 14 BEATRICE [16] Ds → µ 323 ± 44 ± 12 ± 34 BES [17] Ds → l 430 +150 −130 ± 40 L3 [18] Ds → τ 309 ± 58 ± 33 ± 38 In the following we describe a method for the extraction of the D s leptonic branching ratios which minimises the systematical error due to the normalisation of the sample. It is based on the direct observation of D ( * ) s produced in antineutrino induced diffractive interactions and a topological selection of the events which improves the purity of the sample used for the normalisation.…”

“…These experiments used the datasets taken around 3.773 GeV, except for the BESI experiment at 4.03 GeV. Meanwhile, experimental studies of D + s → + ν have been performed by the fixed-target experiments (CERN WA75 [12] Fermilab E653 [13] and CERN WA92 [14]); using Z 0 decays at 91 GeV (L3 [15], OPAL [16] and ALEPH [17]); using B decays produced around ϒ(4S) and ϒ(5S) (CLEO [18], Belle [19,20] and BaBar [21]) and using…”
