Entanglement states are important for both basic research and applied research. However, these entanglement states usually relate to one or several of the particles' physical quantities. Here we theoretically show that a particle-antiparticle pair can form packaged entanglement states which encapsulate all the necessary physical quantities for completely identifying the particles. There are two types of packaged entanglement states, i.e., C-symmetrical and C-asymmetrical. The particles in the packaged entanglement states are hermaphroditic and indeterminate. Thereafter, we gave a possible experimental scheme for testing the packaged entanglement states. We also proposed a protocol for teleporting a particle to an arbitrarily large distance using the packaged entanglement states and discussed the transfer of a packaged entanglement state from two particles to another two particles. Finally, we present a new interpretation to the baryogenesis based on the theory of packaged entanglement states in which the particles are indeterminate and hermaphroditic. Baryogenesis, or the origin of matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe, is one of the major unsolved problems in physical cosmology. We have shown that the collapse of packaged entanglement states with C-symmetry breaking satisfies the Sakharov conditions. By further proposing an entanglement selection principle, we can give a self-consistent interpretation to the origin of matter-antimatter asymmetry produced in early universe. Thus, the collapse of packaged entanglement states with C-symmetry breaking could be or at lease contribute to the origin of matter-antimatter asymmetry. These packaged entanglement states could be important for particle physics and useful in matter teleportation, medicine, remote control, and energy transfer.

The effective conjugation symmetry that arises in the rotating wave frame is the analogue of the charge conjugation symmetry in field theory. Breaking this effective conjugation symmetry leads to asymmetries between up-chirped and down-chirped excitation in quantum optical systems. We use semiclassical quantum optics theory to describe these processes and experimentally characterize the asymmetry in the optical response in chirped, two-color saturated absorption spectroscopy (SAS) in an atomic vapor cell. Doing so demonstrates a theoretical and phenomenological correspondence to the simplest model of leptogenesis, the process by which our universe purportedly went from equal amounts of matter and antimatter to its present matter excess. The understanding of the asymmetry as due to a broken discrete symmetry under chirp illuminates the underlying processes responsible for other chirp asymmetries previously noted in the literature.
