Abstract
We show that the Reeh–Schlieder property w.r.t. KMS states is a direct consequence of locality, additivity, and the relativistic KMS condition. The latter characterizes the thermal equilibrium states of a relativistic quantum field theory. The statement remains valid even if the given equilibrium state breaks spatial translation invariance.
