Determination of c_mathrm A in three-flavour lattice QCD with Wilson fermions and tree-level improved gauge action

We report on an ongoing non-perturbative determination of the improvement coefficient of the axial current, $c_\mathrm A$, with three flavours of dynamical $\mathrm O(a)$ improved Wilson quarks and tree-level Symanzik improved gauge action. Our computations are based on simulations with the openQCD code. The improvement condition for a range of couplings is formulated with Schr\"odinger functional boundary conditions and imposed along a line of constant physics in parameter space. Our analysis involves correlation functions with boundary wave functions such that a large sensitivity to $c_\mathrm A$ can be reached by exploiting the PCAC relation with two different pseudoscalar states.
