Recently a new measurement has been presented by CLEO: CLEO (2007) M() = 547.785 ± 0.017 ± 0.057 MeV KLOE method: analysis of fully neutral 3 events f with f with 3 clusters in the calorimeter only. Kinematic fit with 4 constraints ==> energies by cluster positions Discrimination between and very easy from Dalitz plot.
