We explore the application of twistronics in plasmonic systems by superimposing two plasmonic skyrmion lattices to create a moiré skyrmion superlattice. We combine this concept with plasmonic topological excitations and demonstrate that the topology of moiré skyrmion lattices contains skyrmion bags as complex topological quasiparticles that so far have been demonstrated only in liquid crystals and chiral ferromagnets. The size of plasmonic skyrmion bags can be controlled by the twist angle and its center of rotation. The resulting electric field distribution of a skyrmion bag is derived numerically and verified experimentally using time-resolved two-photon photoemission electron vector microscopy (PEEM).
