• Motivations
• Holographic potential and melting T
• Subleading order potential from AdS/CFT
• Conclusions
OUTLINES
Many interesting phenomena in QCD lie in the strongly-coupled region.
Lattice: problematic with finite chemical potentioal, time-
dependent problems
Dyson-Schwinger Eq.
AdS/CFT: Notable success in RHIC physics
Motivations
AdS/CFT applied to RHIC physics
• Viscosity, /s.
• Thermodynamics.
• Jet quenching
• Photon production, Friction
• Heavy quarkonium
• Hardron spectrum (ADS/QCD)
Heavy quark potential probes the confinement in hadronic matter and meson melting in plasma

According to the holographic principle, the thermal average of a WL operator in 4D N=4 SUSY YM at large N_c and large 't Hooft coupling corresponds to the minimum area of the string world sheet in the 5D AdS metric with a Euclidean signature

Summary
We calculated dissociation temperatures Td of heavy quarkonium states from holographic potential ,which have remarkable features compariable with that from Lattice
We computed the heavy-quark potential up at sub-leading order
We derived the partition function of Wilson loop with fluctuations in strongly coupling N=4 SYM plasma
