abstract = {A measurement of the mass of the W boson is presented based on proton–proton collision data recorded in 2011 at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC, and corresponding to   4.6 fb−1  of integrated luminosity. The selected data sample consists of   7.8×106  candidates in the   W→μν  channel and   5.9×106  candidates in the   W→eν  channel. The W-boson mass is obtained from template fits to the reconstructed distributions of the charged lepton transverse momentum and of the W boson transverse mass in the electron and muon decay channels, yielding
mW=80370=80370±7 (stat.)±11(exp. syst.)±14 (mod. syst.) MeV±19MeV,
where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second corresponds to the experimental systematic uncertainty, and the third to the physics-modelling systematic uncertainty. A measurement of the mass difference between the   W+  and   W−  bosons yields   mW+−mW−=−29±28  MeV.},
