We present a measurement of the W boson mass using data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron during 1994–1995. We identify W bosons by their decays to [Formula Presented] final states. We extract the W mass [Formula Presented] by fitting the transverse mass and transverse electron momentum spectra from a sample of 28 323 [Formula Presented] decay candidates. We use a sample of 3563 dielectron events, mostly due to [Formula Presented] decays, to constrain our model of the detector response. From the transverse mass fit we measure [Formula Presented] GeV. Combining this with our previously published result from data taken in 1992–1993, we obtain [Formula Presented]. © 1998 The American Physical Society.
