The non-perturbative O(a)-improved action for dynamical Wilson fermions

Abstract

We compute the improvement coefficient $c_{sw}$ that multiplies the Sheikholeslami-Wohlert term as a function of the bare gauge coupling for two flavour QCD. We discuss several aspects concerning simulations with improved dynamical Wilson fermions.
