Abstract
We calculate the Sheikholeslami-Wohlert coefficient of the O(a) improvement-term for Wilson fermions in any representation of the gauge group SU(N) perturbatively at the one-loop level. The result applies to QCD with adjoint quarks and to \( \mathcal{N} \) = 1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on the lattice.
