Abstract
In this Letter we extend the estimate of the value of the lattice spacing a in units of the r(0) scale at values of the bare coupling larger than those available. By using results from the computation of the renormalised coupling in the Schrodinger functional formalism we find that from beta similar or equal to 7 onward the behaviour predicted by asymptotic freedom at three loop describes very well the data if a value of r(0)Lambda at the lower end of the error bar is used. We also show that, by sticking to the current value, an effective four loop term can describe as well the data. The systematic relative error on the lattice spacing induced by the choice of the procedure is between 1\% and 3\% for 6.92 < beta < 8.5. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
