Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox in a hybrid bipartite system
  Entanglement of light and matter is an essential resource for effective quantum engineering. In particular, collective states of atomic ensembles are robust against decoherence while preserving the possibility of strong interaction with quantum states of light. While previous approaches to continous-variable quantum interfaces relied on quadratures of light, here we present an approach based on spatial structure of light-atom entanglement. We create and characterize a 12-dimensional entangled state exhibiting quantum correlations between a photon and an atomic ensemble in position and momentum bases. This state allows us to demonstrate the original Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) paradox with two different entities, with an unprecedented delay time of 6 $\mu$s between generation of entanglement and detection of the atomic state.
