This thesis presents the results of an analysis of the 3.7 fb-1 of Tevatron proton-antiproton data collected with the DZero (D0) Detector at Fermilab during the "RunIIb34" period, with the goal of extracting an improved measurement of the W boson mass, which is currently measured to a precision of ≈ 20 MeV.
