Measurement of the B0 and B+ meson masses from B0 -> psi(') KS and B+ -> psi(') K+ decays

Abstract
Using 9.6 million B meson pairs collected with the CLEO detector, we have fully reconstructed 135 B0 -> psi(') KS and 526 B+ -> psi(') K+ candidates with very low background. We fitted the psi(')K invariant mass distributions of these B meson candidates and measured the masses of the neutral and charged B mesons to be M(B0)=5279.1+-0.7[stat]+-0.3[syst] MeV/c2 and M(B+)=5279.1+-0.4[stat]+-0.4[syst] MeV/c2. The precision is a significant improvement over previous measurements.
