Abstract
We give precise conditions sufficient to guarantee that an infinite system will act as a thermal reservoir for any of its finite parts. In particular we show that these conditions are satisfied for the X-Y model. Further results on the ergodic behavior and general relaxation properties of the systems considered are also obtained directly from the C*-algebraic methods used in the main body of the paper.
