Light hadron masses with an O(a²) improved NNN action

Meson and baryon masses in the light (u,d and s) sector are calculated using tadpole-improved gauge field and fermion actions. These are corrected to order $O(a^2)$ on the classical level using next-nearest-neighbour terms. The results, obtained at lattice spacings of 0.4 and 0.27fm, are compared to Wilson action calculations.
