What does the degrees of freedom of this theory look like?If the theory doesn't describe particles then what does it describe?

You should give a reference to what you are trying to talk about.
 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unparticle_physics .This is a theory proposed by georgi . that represent a scale invariant sector in the standard model .It describes matter that is not described by particles but I can't understand how is that so.How can this type of matter be not composed of particles .
 
You might find http://www.ps.uci.edu/~jlf/research/presentations/0711davis.pdf" overview of unparticles helpful.
