    "abstract": "We examine interferometric measurements of the topological charge of\n(non-Abelian) anyons. The target\u0027s topological charge is measured from its\neffect on the interference of probe particles sent through the interferometer.\nWe find that superpositions of distinct anyonic charges a and a\u0027 in the target\ndecohere (exponentially in the number of probes particles used) when the probes\nhave nontrivial monodromy with the charges that may be fused with a to give a\u0027.",
