The masses of [sup 18]Ne, and of the [sup 14]O first excited state that dominates the astrophysical [sup 13]N([ital p],[gamma]) reaction rate, were measured using the [sup 16]O([sup 3]He,[ital n]) and [sup 12]C([sup 3]He,[ital n]) reactions. We found mass excesses of 5316.8[plus minus]1.5 keV for the [sup 18]Ne ground state and 13163.4[plus minus]2.0 keV for the first excited state of [sup 14]O. The [sup 14]O mass corresponds to an [sup 13]N([ital p],[gamma]) resonance energy of 528.8[plus minus]2.0 keV. This is consistent with the result from a recent [sup 13]N+[ital p] study, but disagrees with the previously accepted value. Implications for the thermonuclear [sup 13]N([ital p],[gamma]) rate are discussed.
