We determine the density-dependent electron mass, m*, in two-dimensional (2D) electron systems of GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures by performing detailed low-temperature Shubnikov deHaas measurements. Using very high quality transistors with tunable electron densities we measure m* in single, high mobility specimens over a wide range of r_s (6 to 0.8). Toward low-densities we observe a rapid increase of m* by as much as 40%. For 2>r_s>0.8 the mass values fall ~10% below the band mass of GaAs. Numerical calculations are in qualitative agreement with our data but differ considerably in detail.
