Abstract
A compact general integral formula is derived from which the fermionic contribution to the one-loop coefficient in the perturbative expansion of the MS coupling in powers of the bare lattice coupling can be extracted. It is seen to reproduce the known results for unimproved naive, staggered and Wilson fermions, and has advantageous features which facilitate the evaluation in the case of improved lattice fermion formulations. This is illustrated in the case of Wilson clover fermions, and an expression in terms of known lattice integrals is obtained in this case which gives the coefficient to much greater numerical accuracy than in the previous literature.
