Very impressive next steps. Its implications still unclear. If this works, we might be able to solve very difficult problems more quickly. Note its still no where near 'beam me down' capability as yet. Still following closely due to our early connections.
“Qutrit” Experiments Are a First in Quantum Teleportation
The proof-of-concept demonstrations herald a major step forward in quantum communications

Researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China and the Austrian Academy of Sciences say they have teleported a tripartite unit of quantum information known as a qutrit, which embodies the superposition of the quantum states of 0, 1, and 2. Two separate teams generated qutrits using the triple-branching path of a photon, manifested in optical systems of lasers, beam splitters, and barium borate crystals. The teams then verified the qutrits' entanglement, or Bell state, in order to prove their high-fidelity conveyance of data. One team claimed their Bell state measurement, across 10 states, fulfilled the parameters of a successful proof of concept; the other team disputes this, arguing its experiment was more successful. Said William Wootters of Williams College, “Each of these [experiments] is an important advance in the technology of teleportation." .... "
