We make use of the AdS/CFT correspondence to determine the energy of an external quark-antiquark pair that moves through strongly-coupled thermal N=4 super-Yang-Mills plasma, both in the rest frame of the plasma and in the rest frame of the pair. It is found that the pair feels no drag force, has an energy that reproduces the expected 1/L (or gamma/L) behavior at small quark-antiquark separations, and becomes unbound beyond a certain screening length whose velocity-dependence we determine. We discuss the relation between the high-velocity limit of our results and the lightlike Wilson loop proposed recently as a definition of the jet-quenching parameter.

Strongly Coupled Soft Functions
The cusp anomalous dimension at strong coupling is obtained for all rapidity separations from two competing string saddles, and the transversely-separated two-cusp Wilson loop scales as (b_perp^2 Lambda^2)^{-Re Gamma_cusp}.
