Abstract
We report all-optical Bose-Einstein-Condensation of sodium in a far-detuned crossed-dipole- trap. Sub-doppler-cooled sodium atoms are loaded into a crossed-dipole-trap and subsequently condensed by optical evaporation which yields condensates of 150000 atoms distributed over several spin-states.
