The Subleading Term of the Strong Coupling Expansion of the Heavy-Quark Potential in a $\mathcal{N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills Vacuum

Shao-xia Chu, Defu Hou, Hai-cang Ren

Applying the AdS/CFT correspondence, the expansion of the heavy-quark potential of the $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory at large $N_c$ is carried out to the sub-leadin…
