Determination of the mass of the W boson using the D∅ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron

A measurement of the mass of the W boson is presented which is based on a sample of 5982 W → eν decays observed in pp̄ collisions at √s = 1.8 TeV with the D∅ detector during the 1992-1993 run. From a fit to the transverse mass spectrum, combined with measurements of the Z boson mass, the W boson mas...
