Abstract

We note that the energy loss in N = 4 SYM measures directly the spatial string tension σ_S = π sqrt(λ) T² / 2 which is at the origin of the area law for large spatial Wilson loops. We show that the latter reflects on the nonperturbative nature of Ampere's law in N = 4 SYM both in vacuum and at finite temperature.
