A measurement of the mass of the W boson is presented which is based on a sample of 5982 W -> e nu decays observed in pbar-p collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV with the D0 detector during the 1992-1993 run. From a fit to the transverse mass…

The W-boson mass has been measured using the ALEPH detector at LEP. Preliminary results from data taken in 1998 are added to previous measurements to give mW = 80.411 +- 0.064(stat.) +- 0.037(syst.) +- 0.022(BE-CR) +- 0.018(LEP) GeV/c2.
