Description
Unparticle exchange gives rise to long range forces which deviate from the inverse square law due to the noncanonical dimension of unparticles. It is well known that a potential of the form r-n where n is not equal to 1 gives rise to a precession in the perihelion of planetary orbits. We calculate the constraints on unparticle couplings with baryons and leptons from the observations of perihelion advance of Mercury's orbit.
