Some comments on the holographic heavy quark potential in a thermal bath

The heavy quark potential of a thermal Yang–Mills theory in strong coupling limit is explored in terms of the holographic principle. With a fairly general AdS/QCD metric the heavy quark potential displays a kink-like screening in the plasma phase. This behavior may conflict the causality of a field...
