Here, we present a combination of measurements of the top quark mass by the D0 experiment in the lepton+jets and dilepton channels. We use all the data collected in Run I (1992–1996) at √s = 1.8 TeV and Run II (2001–2011) at √s = 1.96 TeV of the Tevatron p¯p collider, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 0.1 fb–1 and 9.7 fb–1, respectively. The combined result is: mt = 174.95 ± 0.40(stat) ± 0.64(syst) GeV = 174.95 ± 0.75 GeV.
