DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\n13-LEVEL QUDIT MEASUREMENT DEMONSTRATED IN TRAPPED 
 IONS\n\nAbstract: Qudits are an interesting alternative to qubits for a nu
 mber\nof algorithmic reasons\, but for trapped ions they could be a path f
 or\nscaling. Ion traps are running into limitations on the number of\nqubi
 ts they can confine in a single trap\, and using more of the\ncomputationa
 l space available in the ions to make qudits is an\nattractive solution. W
 e have proposed using trapped ion qudits in a\nprevious paper\, developing
  all of the necessary quantum information\nprotocols for their implementat
 ion. Here\, we present an experimental\nresult of a 13-level qudit measure
 ment with a fidelity of 91.3%. The\nprotocol can be used to measure up to 
 a 25-level qudit in barium. The\nerror scaling is not inherent to the dime
 nsion of the qudit\, so we can\nenvision going to higher dimensions withou
 t a significant increase in\nerror.
