                      experiment at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV in 2016$-$2018,
                      corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb$^{-1}$,
                      the first full reconstruction of the three vector B meson
                      states, B$^{*+}$, B$^{*0}$, and B$^{*0}_\text{s}$, is
                      performed. The mass differences between the excited mesons
                      and their corresponding ground states are measured to be
                      $m(\text{B}^{*+})-m(\text{B}^+)$ = 45.277 $\pm$ 0.039 $\pm$
                      0.027 MeV, $m(\text{B}^{*0})- m(\text{B}^0)$ = 45.471 $\pm$
                      0.056 $\pm$ 0.028 MeV, and
                      $m(\text{B}^{*0}_\text{s})-m(\text{B}_\text{s})$ = 49.407
                      $\pm$ 0.132 $\pm$ 0.041 MeV, where the first uncertainties
                      are statistical and the second are systematic. These results
                      improve on the precision of previous measurements by an
                      order of magnitude.},
